March

In early March, Lee and I went to Huntsville, AL for a weekend. It was a beautiful weekend and nice to get away! 





We went to a military museum and Lee played with the toys


 Granny came for a long weekend. We went to explore downtown Lebanon and let's just say- aside from this butterfly mural- there is nothing there.





 We did a science experiment about blubber.

 



State Archery Tournament for Amy

I made a pig quilt for a friend who loves pigs and then hosted a party for her.


 The weather was back to being nice.


I built some boxes for the front porch


 I enjoyed a hike with some friends

February

 February was a pretty quiet month around here. With warmer temps, we got the porch painted- that was about our biggest accomplishment!







I finished a Valentines Day quilt and started a pig one for a friend.



Tyler got his homeschool archery jersey


We all got to go to the temple together! That was a lot of fun!


I gave the boys an old printer to take apart. They loved this

I built some strawberry beds.

That was the extent of the fun in February

Hello 2024!! January

For the past few years we have thrown a New Years party for teens! Teens are so much fun. And they love confetti. We invite a few adults friends over, but the teenagers steal the show. 

Needless to say- we have a LOT of confetti. And we find it for months. And I love it.




On the local radio again with Barry Blair and Jennifer Salter

This is how we know Amy was here. She leaves smiley faces everywhere.

Our dryer was having a wheel issue. So I fixed it! I felt super proud of myself!



Schoolwork!


Some church object lessons





Added solar lights to the stairwell. It helps because it's really dark out front!


Tyler joined a homeschool archery team.

Will made cream cheese rangoons.

It snowed! It doesn't snow often, so when it does we takes lots of pictures!


















It got into the teen temps as well. Even the chickens weren't coming out of their coop.


It was so cold that the eggs froze as soon as they were laid!


I started quilting. Isn't this chicken adorable!?!

Amy turned 17!!






Uncle Mark gave Amy a strand of pearls for her birthday. She loves them!








I had the boys weave baskets in prep for Easter. The idea was that we could fill them and give them out. Well, they hates every second of it. They weren't even baskets when they were done. haha. Oh well. You win some, you lose some.
