I tried and tried to get a nice "2 year old" shot but she was such a wiggle worm all excited about her party she just wouldn't sit still. 
She was so embarassed to have everyone looking at her. I have more pictures to come just because she is so cute!
Our Irish Soda Bread. A touch too salty but still yummy.
Making pretzel clovers.
Emmy also made a clover Trinity.
Mom very happy with some slippers. She told me she would like slippers because she hadn't had a pair in over 40 years!
This weeks PE class was project adventure. I didn't get many pictures because I was having too much fun playing myself. Here they are trying to get through the maze. You can probably figure it out but Georgia was blind-folded and Josie led her through the maze.
Emeline and Margi had fun just running through it.
Then they played escape to the island (or something like that). Brad said God graciously left a rope for escape and they had to get all of the passengers of one boat to the island. The island was very small. You can picture whole classes doing this and then a bunch of kids holding each other on a little mat so as not to fall in the "crocodile laden water".
Weeeeeeee 
We finally made our own salt dough crown of thorns. I made a batch of salt dough, split it evenly into three (and a handful for Margie to play with), and had the girls get rolling.
They needed some help to get it braided so I did that. I didn't have a single toothpick in the house but did have some small nails so we used those. Georgia said "So it's like each time we make a sacrifice and pull a nail we are causing Jesus less pain."
There it is. Now lets see some sacrifices being made around here!! 
Emmy is playing basketball too! She has been very anxious to go lately but still doesn't like anyone to look at her.
She sunk one. Don't you love the 3 foot rim!
Heave it up there Em!
Dribbling. She is a pretty good little dribbler. Look at her concentration.
Look at her shot!! Yay Emeline!
Now we are practicing the bounce pass. It is so much fun to watch her run and smile. She has a lovely little soul! 
Margie got into some make-up. Now she can be made-up on her way to the daily parades that she attends! 
Georgia's basketball season is over and we couldn't be more proud of her. She scored some points here and there and played some pretty tight defense but most of all she was a team player. It was very heartwarming to hear her say "good job" and give her teammates a high-5. I think she has a bright future!!
Jacob getting ready for the event. Dad must be cleaning off some drool!
Father told all of the kids to "come right up here"!
This was fun trying to get these little kids still. I was trying to get my littles up there but more littles kept coming!!!
Well ever since Georgia got a nerf over the door basketball set for her birthday we have had some pretty heated games in the girls' bedroom. They are making up plays, shots etc. We not only have heated games but we also have some crazy characters that come to play like the 2 above. They have "basketball outfits" that they don and they seem to add a bit more crazy each time they play. :)
We found out it was National Pig Day yesterday so I created a little fun for the kids. I found a coloring picture of the three Little Pigs and had them color them, cut them out, and glue them to a craft stick. While they were doing that I created the houses. Emmy lived in the straw house.
Josie lived in the brick house,
and Elsie lived in the stick house.
Here they are at the end all trying to get away from the big bad wolf. Georgia played that part. 
Georgia played basketball this winter on our town team. Here she is with her rockin' sports glasses on! All the kids thought those glasses were so very cool. I thank God for that! 
Here she has the ball trying to get a shot off. Both "real" games the team played she scored 1 out of the 5 baskets so she was VERY proud of that.
Not sure if this is offense or defense. At this level it all kind of looked the same :)
There is a shot. No comments about that really ugly form. It is hard for little hands to shoot correctly. I think to make it easier they should lower the basket about a couple feet. Then they would be able to shoot correctly. This shot went in by the way!
Talking to coach after the game. I've already put my name in to coach next year! Hope hope hope I get it!
