the long awaited mission call…

april 7. 2009
Cody received his mission call, and we photographed the whole event walking to the mailbox and throughout the whole thing. Aaron saw it in the mail(Cody is living with our other brother Aaron and his wife), and made Cody wait to go get it until we were all there for him to open it. He will be serving in San Bernadino, CA, and leaves June 3rd. We had a nice pizza party after, thanks to Aaron and Cami.

We also had two friends of our girls’ with us, so we had a total of 7 little girls counting all the kids there. Good thing Aaron and Cami are expecting a boy, break this trend of girls!

montessori day…

march 13. 2009
My friends Julie and Sarah and I try to get together once a month and do some Montessori centers. I taught the kids subtraction with thousands using beads, and Julie cut out the United States and was teaching them the States song. It was a lot of fun, looking forward to April’s get-together!
