Jay's ‘tude

Jaylynn's response when I said it was time to come in.

Note to Jay: You picked this outfit it, not me.

Nervous Coconuts

Jaylynn: I'm going to the store to buy coconuts. You're making me nervous.
I'm not sure what being nervous has to do with coconuts but maybe she'll pick up some bread while she is there.

Operation Christmas Child

At church today, the kids wrapped shoe boxes with Christmas wrapping paper. They are going to fill them with little treats and needs for children far away that wouldn't get a Christmas gift otherwise. It's called Operation Christmas Child. The kids are so excited to fill the boxes up, write their letters and then get letters back. They are hoping to get a new friend and make this Christmas a special one for another child.

Tonight was Book Fair night so we went and got a few books. While we were there, Jenna had us stop at her classroom so we could see her self-portrait. Great job Jenna!

Seneca Creek

I've been looking for a church and Kelly, Megan and Noah go to this church that sounded like a match. Jasmine and James have gone with them and really enjoyed it. We went today for the first time and I think we've found our church. The kids had an amazing time (Jay, not so much but that was expected) and for that, it makes it feel like home. I love that the older ones (Jazzi and James) have friends that go there. Tweens is a hard age to be so I'm so grateful that I think we found a spiritual home. Can't wait for next week!
