Compassion Experience and Cuties.

Compassion Experience
We went to the "Compassion Experience".  We learned about three different kids from the Dominican Republic, Philippines, and Uganda.  They each had extreme difficulties that they overcame in their life.  It was a neat experience and I am glad my kids got to see what life can be like in other parts of the world.  We went on Veterans Day and we felt very grateful for those who have sacrificed so much as that we can live in this free country!




Cuties
These boys love to walk and talk.  I've been trying to get out and walk with the kids every day.  These 2 just walk ahead of us and chat, chat, chat!

And the newest game these 2 play is hide and seek.  Charity hides in a cupboard, Felicity finds her, laughs hysterically, and then joins her in the hiding spot!

Not just cupboards!  They like to fit into any small space they can squeeze into!
 Charity has been letting me get a little more creative with her hair these days.  I need help in this area, but she sure is cute when I can get some kind of hair do for her!

 Miss Felicity is 18 months this month.  Time is going so fast!  She started nursery at church and has loved it so far!  Her teacher said she sits and eats snacks most of the time!  Cute baby!






Arrow of Light

Before Hunter turned 11, he met all the requirements for his Arrow of Light Award for Cub Scouts!  He also earned his Religious Knot emblem.  We are so proud of him!  Enjoy these pictures of his Arrow of Light Ceremony...










 

Thomas and James got there awards that night also! Way to go scouts!

Happy Halloween 2017

Another Halloween in the books!  We went to a Halloween Festival at Etiwanda High School for Madelyn and Savannah's fundraiser.  Notice the photo bomber!  The boys loved the haunted houses and Charity loved the games!


Charity dressed as Hermione this year...

  and here is her cat Crookshanks...

Crookshanks was not big on her cute ears...

 Hunter was a Gangsta for the Ward Halloween Party, he ended up dressing as Jar Jar on Halloween night but I didn't get a picture.  He was too busy off partying with neighbor kids!

 And Napoleon...
He learned all the dance moves and was a hit at a church Halloween Dance!

At the Ward Party...
 2 cute Hermiones!

 All the cousins and some friends...

 Candy Galore!


Jack O Lanterns...  I've decided this is my favorite craft to do with kids!  That's why I always make sure we get to it every year!





Happy Halloween from this Crazy Bunch!

Sea World

Lawni was in town and planned a Sea World field trip for the cousins.  All the youngest cousins were able to go and it was so much fun!







Wild life, or Wild kids?






Fun times with cousins and marine life!
