A good day with my sweet blessings! Praising the risen King!
In early March we were involved in a car accident. All five of us were in the car. We are VERY thankful that we were all ok. We had some bumps, bruises and a scrape, but everyone in both parties were ok. However, both cars were totaled. I was also thankful that it was not my fault.
It was very scary.
The insurance adventure was overall a quick process. Our car was totaled out and they paid for a rental. Sadly this meant we had to go out and get a new car, which was definitely not in the budget. We are thankful we were able to find a nice used minivan.

Our sweet little ladies got haircuts! They donated 6 ponytails total to Locks of Love. Great Clips cuts for free for donations to Locks of Love. 
Summer Rose was worried to cut her long hair, but her heavy hair was starting to cause headaches. Both girls like their shorter hair.
One of our favorite field trips! The Game and Fish Outdoor Expo!
My sweet little baby is 7yrs old! Time is sure flying by!
She had her first party! It was a garden themed party at the park. The kiddos painted pots, planted flowers, and ate “dirt with worms” for dessert!
We all had a blast! I’m very thankful for my sweet Spring Blossom, she is such a blessing in our lives! Happy Birthday!
AWANA games and Quizzing are always big springtime events.
Spring Blossom participated in the Sparks’o'Rama for the first time! Hooray! She was so cute down on the court. Our team got 3rd place.
The other two participated in the T&T (3rd-6th grade) games. Both had fun and played great! We had two teams this year. Summer Rose and Winter Sprout were on team 1 and placed 2nd. Our other team placed 1st. Great job!
T&T Bible Quizzing is a tough event. Teams compete from around the state. I am so proud of my kiddos for all the hard studying they do to prepare for this intense event!
This was Summer Rose’s last year in T&T, and her team got 2nd place. She will move on to Trek next year and compete on that level. She is very excited.
This was Winter Sprout’s second year competing. His team scored 1st place! Great job!
I pray this is a blessed year filled with precious memories and many smiles. I pray that God holds tight to our family and grows us closer to Him.
A blessed Christmas together….
This year the children were involved in two choir programs. Both have been wonderful and the children have loved them very much!
Winter Sprout has found a new sport, or actually it found him. It started with a free 2hr session of air rifle shooting with the local game and fish dept. Simply put, he is a natural. The instructor told us that he’d recommend Winter Sprout join the Junior Rifle Team. We signed him up and he has showed his natural talent grow over the past few months on the team. He actually won 1st place gold at his first competition after only a bit over a month shooting. Impressive, especially since we don’t own a gun (the team provides ALL materials). As he gets better, he can participate in several more competitions and iirc eventually on an Olympic level. He can also try to earn scholarships.
The poor kid is such a good sport, he had to wear pink ear protection for the competition as those were the only ones left at the store. We took him out after the competition to get nice manly gray ones.
