Those are great! Can I ask if you used a program when they were younger? We are trying to figure out what to do for art and music still :)

Oh, and I loved your series on John. It will be exciting to get more in depth with my kids in the next few years (beyond questions like "Is God bigger than a giraffe? Is He bigger than a tree?)

4-H Exhibits-Updated

Update: Blue ribbons all around! 4 of our projects will go onto the state fair. John's headboard exceeds size limitations and so we will lug it home tomorrow. We are relieved. That thing is heavy! ************* For the past few weeks we have been busy sewing, sawing, quilling and painting 4-H projects. The kids have been in 4-H for about a month and they started with a bang. The annual 4-H fair is tomorrow. So this morning we loaded these projects and four kids wearing slippers into the car. The fifth one had sense enough to wear flip-flops. (The other four complained as we pulled out of the driveway that their feet were sweating.)
