Week in Review...

Last Sunday Ashlyn and Jacob were playing with blocks for quiet time and they were so excited to show off their masterpieces. Ashlyn made a heart and Jacob made a castle. So cute!

They took these pictures of each other!

On Wednesday I had activity days and we made these cute fleece pillows! Abby has stolen Ashlyns as her own!

We also had New Beginnings on Wednesday night and it was sad for me because a lot of my Activity day girls will be moving up to YW this year. They did a survivor theme and it was really cute.

On Friday night I was invited to a Galentine's Party just for girls. It was at a girls parents house, with a big backyard. She decorated it so cute, we had dinner, dessert, drinks and games. It was a fun night out.

Throughout the week I was able to dig for an hour or so almost everyday when I could. I made some pretty good progress! This is the right side of our yard, with two big dirt mounds.

I was able to dig all of this out, this is about 4 feet of hill!

Here is our huge dirt mound on the side of the yard...

My three dirt collectors! Rick went out and bought me a wheelbarrow! Must be true love:) Yes, I've done all of the digging by myself. Rick started school and so all of his spare time goes to school and spending time with family, although he has helped out with capping the sprinklers. This has been such a fun project for me, it really relieves my stress and is helping me to tone up my muscles! Two benefits!

This is the left side of the yard.

The long stretch down the left side...

Haley is registering for High School, so we are trying to figure out her schedule over the next 4 years. It's been very stressful trying to figure out how to fit all of the required classes in, plus release time seminary, plus her classes that she wants, ie orchestra and BioMed and Drivers Ed! She will have a very long school day and probably have to do an online class every summer and once during the year, but we think we have it figured out! Crossing our fingers! On Thursday night, the high school hosted a Freshman Preview night where they could explore all of the clubs and classes. I'm so excited for her to go to this high school, I was very impressed with the principal and the whole atmosphere. I hope that she has a great time, just like I did!
