This and That

Since I’m so behind in going through my pictures and uploading them to this site, over the next few days I’m going to try to post a bunch of unrelated catch-up pictures so I won’t still be going through boating pictures when it’s snowing outside (although maybe that would warm me up inside!).

Here’s Danny sporting the new headlamp from Bubba and Pappy’s trip to Tennessee:

And Tazie with her good friend at a birthday party:

Jimmy learning yo-yo techniques from a pro:

Tazie showing her hand at arts and crafts:

Tazie looking at pictures of the girls when they were newborns:

Some of Becky’s latest creations.  She cut out pictures by other people and assembled them into bookmarks with her special touches:

Isn’t this dog she drew beautiful?

This following picture made me laugh – I took it to illustrate the difference in Becky and Susie’s personalities.  I had asked the girls to put together some clothes for a weekend trip. The left pile is Susie’s, and the pile on the right is Becky’s.  Susie is more laid-back and carefree, and Becky is more organized and deliberate, both in packing and in life!  I love how the Lord gave us these two girls who are so gifted in different ways!

Another picture that made me laugh!  I love how Susie’s spirit comes through in her writing, and how well she’s done practicing her cursive, which she really didn’t learn in school (A few years ago, Susie’s teacher took a few weeks to introduce the concept, but since it’s not in the official curriculum, it was up to the kids to keep at it, and she’s done very well!):
