Katrina Slideshow

Here is a slideshow I made of Katrina.

Piano Lessons!!

Mercy, Esther, and Cassie

Yesterday Emma spent the night stay our house. After we dropped her off dad took me and Ellie to piano lessons. While I was doing it my teacher said this is our last lesson. I was really sad, I have been taking from her for almost 4 years. When we got home we all went to Crown and Covenant. We brought Mercy to stay with us. Last night I made dessert crepes with Carmel and ice cream. We all watched National Treasure. This morning Dad took Mercy home and we all did school. I just got done eating lunch.

Hiking day!!!

Kaila, Destiny, Jessica, Karissa, Ruth, and Mary

Levi and Drew

Today we all went for a hike with the Kruse's, Owens, and the Gracious family. We picked up some of the Kruse kids. When we got there it was 1:00, and we were supposed to be there at 12:30. It was lots of fun, and lots of walking. when we got to the top we walked all the way across to the other side of the mountain, then all the way back. But it was fun talking with everyone and seeing all the beautiful valley bellow and Gods beautiful creation. After we got done mom took us to Food-4-Less and we all got ice cream. Here are some pics of the hike.

Yesterday was Levi's birthday, he turned 6 years old. I was really busy so I didn't have time to do my blog. Well after we did school, mom took me shopping to get some stuff for the party. We got back just in time to pick up the girls and take them to ballet. I didn't go to ballet because I had to get the party stuff ready. Me and Kolten blew up allot of balloons and I wrapped presents. Then we all left to our church, because that is where we had the party. I had a prize table and Ellie and Esther had a snack table. We did games and all the kids got prizes . After that Levi opened presents and then we had cake and ice cream. Ellie made allot of popcorn so all kids had some and we watched a movie on our big screen. It was lots of fun. These are some pics from the party. Well I have to go. Bye

Speech Class!!

Hi,
Today We all did our school, then Mrs. Deems came and took Kaila with her to go witnessing, and Drew and Tessa stayed here. Well I sewed a little bit, then I was doing my blog. Mom took Kolten shopping with him and so I stayed and watched the kids for a little while. All the girls made brownies, and then they watched a movie, and I did the computer. When mom got home I helped her make dinner. After we ate we all rushed in the car to go to speech class. This was the last speech class, and it is sad cause we wont see everyone in a long time. We still had lots of fun.

Piano Lessons

Where's my doll

Hello,
Today after school we went to music lessons. When we got back we all went to Crown and Covenant. we were learning about the Non-Reason time period, it was really fun. When we got home I started sewing a dress for Esther. It is going to look kind of like my colonial dress I made. Mom and dad went and rented a movie, and so we all watched it after dinner. well that's all for today. Here are some pics of Katrina dressing up in Esther's dress up clothes. Isn't she cute.

Sewing

Yesterday Grandma came over and gave me a serger!!!!
I was so excited, I couldn't believe it. It is so cool, I was sewing all day yesterday and today. It is a Husqvarna Viking 910.

Pictures of Destiny and Me

Today Dad took me up to the Kruse's house, and I brought my dress I made. When we got there Destiny and me put our dresses on that we both made, and took pics. It was lots of fun. These are some of the pictures. I decorated them

Auction Day!!

Today we all did our school and chores. After we were all done we had an auction. Well during the week we get fake money if we do good on tests and other stuff. Then mom buys stuff for the auction, and we all sit down and dad auctions the stuff off. It is lots of fun, some times the stuff goes really high because we try to out bid each other. Well after that us girls went to ballet. When we got home the Goldman's came over and they all played different games. This is a picture of the Goldman family, they are our cousins.

Music Lessons!!!

After we did some school we went to music lessons, Mom took Kaila and Esther at 11:00. Then Dad took Ellie and me to piano. I really enjoy piano, I have been taking it for a couple years. Our teacher said she is moving, so I wont be able to take lessons from her any more. I was so disappointed when I heard that. When we got home I did some more school, and when I was done I sewed some more. Esther and Ellie were playing dress up, that was the dress she had on. I made it for her birthday. Later Dad and mom went on a date night, and while they were gone we cleaned and then watched Swiss Family Robinson. Well that's all for today.

Sewing a Dress

Katrina smelling the flowers

Yesterday I was sewing my dress almost all day, and I finally am done. Right now I am waiting for Destiny to finish using the pattern, so I can make a bonnet to go with it. I let her borrow my pattern because she is making a dress like mine. Today Kaila took some pics of my dress, and the dress I made Katrina a little while ago.
