playing catch up again.

The week before school began again, we took a little journey to Turkey Creek again.

I'm not sure where all the pictures went from this little adventure. We saw several butterflys again. I even had one land on my hand!

Kyria's first day of school was exciting. My big girl is in FIRST GRADE! 

She is ALL pink - even her shoes!

Lovin' her sisters while waiting to leave.

and Anya was having a crazy day! 

I think she was more excited than Kyria was. 

She cannot wait to go to school, too.

a bit behind...

BUT

here are my children's choir from yesterday and 2 weeks ago. :) I will have some pics from Japan up on facebook later today, and I am planning to write a post soon-- (really, I meant to have one done already) :(.

so... enjoy the singing!

In-right, Out-right, Up-right, Down-right

Happy All the Time

I Love America!

Oh, I love this land!

the earth is the LORD's

and the fullness thereof;

the world,

and they that dwell therein.

For he hath founded it upon the seas,

and established it upon the floods.

Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD?

or who shall stand in his holy place?

He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart;

who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity,

nor sworn deceitfully.

He shall receive the blessing from the LORD,

and righteousness from the God of his salvation.

The little slice of earth from which I pray God gives us bountifully! We've added a few plants since this picture... and Kyria took most of the pictures! We have had much rain with beautiful sunshine between... God does a much better job of watering them than I do!
