Last week was awful!!! So busy and exhausting. Robert barely slept at all Saturday and Sunday night so both of us started the week off on slow feet. We had a late dinner at someone's house Monday night. (Can I just say, I love fellowship, but there is nothing easy about taking all four kids and several cooked dishes over to someone else's house), Tuesday morning, Robert wrecked his truck. Which is a long story that I won't get into on here but I will say no one was injured and we have full coverage. Wednesday night was AWANAS, Thursday night was a military ball....see below... The girls were unhappy with my choice in dress. Being as it was the same dress I wore to the ball in Georgia. They were cheering for an old prom dress that I labeled as "too prom-y for a homeschooling mom of four". On to Friday, was Bible study but not just your average bible study night! Darby was getting baptized! This is the only still I got of the baptism because our video camera ran out of battery so I had to video it with my phone. : 6 I will attempt to get the video on her eventually. That will have to be a post all it's own. : ) And then Saturday night Bryse had an award dinner to attend at the local library. The girls entered a bookmark designing contest this winter. They have winners in each grade level. Bryse won for kindergarten! Which means that she got what she is holding in the picture (her bookmark framed and a medal) and her bookmark will be published in order to be given out to library patrons for the summer reading program! : ) Yeay Bryse-y!! And, not only that, but they had gift baskets that you could enter to win. I bought ten entries and the kids chose which baskets to put their entry in for. Both Bryse and Darby's names were drawn! They were so excited! We had left the boys at home with a babysitter and they were asleep when we got home but the girls set the baskets out so that the boys would be surprised to find out that we actually won TWO! Darby's basket was filled with a lot of garage type(trust me, she had chosen it and was excited) stuff and Bryse's was a toy basket!

Tell Darby I am so happy to hear of her baptism. Tell Bryse way to go on the contest. Robert won a drawing contest in junior high.
