After church antics

What a sweet girl! First she chases down Ella to go to the car, then she poses for me. lol Note how her hair is straight. Once I straighten it for her it takes forever for her to let it go curly again. She absolutely loves it the way it is here in the picture!

Then we have the capture of Ella! Silly girl, she loves her big sister but doesn't like being caught!

Anna's recital

Anna's recital was on 12 March 2010. She did so great! They played five songs and then Anna was the only one to sing a solo. She sang "Simple Gifts", the Copland version and did great! Everyone else did violin solos and some of hte more advanced kids played beautifully! The director thought Anna was very talented vocally, which is why she sang instead.
The girl Anna is talking to here is Karen, sho is also her primary teacher. Anna just adores her.I just love technology! This is a snapshot from during one of the songs. I'll post the videos as soon as I figure out how!..lol

Anna;s 1st Grade Science Fair

I was so grateful this year that Anna's class did a class project on weather instead of doing indivual projects for the science fair! Whew! She was so cute showing us everything there when Dave and I came by with the little ones for the presentation time.

chocolate!

So much chocolate and so little time! We visited a small chocolate factory while we were in Oregon and while the babies slept in the car with Dave, Anna and I went inside and drooled! Okay and ate some too!
