"H" Week

H week was full of outdoor activities thanks to this awesome weather that God is blessing us with.

This project didn't really tie in except that it mentioned hearts and home. It was a bookmark, which is always a nice thing to have.


We had the kids to hand painting (a takeoff of finger painting), in colors that match our bedroom. The art will go up on our walls as soon as I find some suitable frames.

People might pay big money for these someday....

We also did some hand prints in concrete mix. They got to decorate it any way that they liked, but I had to make sure that they didn't actually decorate all over their prints. I think they turned out really cute!


Later in the week, Rich took the kids for a hike with a friend and his daughter. Between two guys, they maintained control of 4 kids, ages 6 months to 4 years old. I am super proud of them both! The kids hiked and hiked, and had a blast. It was hot, but they are troopers. (We are actually training them so that we can attempt some backpacking trips this summer. Hhhhmmmm, maybe I should be in training too....)

The kids got to hold a lizard.

Brynn named him "Frosty" because he felt cold.

Apparently some walnuts were spilled, and everyone just picked them off the ground, dusted them off, and ate them. Can you tell that no moms were present????

Our verse of the week: Duet 5:16 Honor your father and mother as the Lord your God has commanded you. That your days may be long, that it may be well with you.
