JOYfilledcreations

8.8.11 – It was hard for me to part with these custom creations.  I’ve finally shipped them out, after several months of delay.  It’s time that they bless someone else.

8.10.11 – We celebrated Dad and Dragonfly’s namesake day with a yummy treat.  It was a slight deviation from last year’s treat.

8.9.11 – We loaded up the car on a hot afternoon.  Everyone had a cool treat.  Papi was too tired to finish his.  He fell asleep within five minutes.  The girls tried, on several occasions, to remove his popsicle but he put up a fight each time.  He held his prized possession for the entire twenty min. car ride.

science fair

8.9.11 – Praise God!  This was a nice consolation for me as I enter a new season of homeschooling.  My children are ignited with a burning love of learning. Sparkles enjoys science. She orchestrated her own lab. Who would have thought that pond scum could be so interesting?

    Your funny picture is hilarious! What a day you must have had.
    And your {pretty} is gorgeous! I can totally understand not wanting to part with those but I am sure they are a blessing to whoever is wearing them.

    That popsicle post is too funny! I can just imagine how worn out he was. I hope it was still edible when he woke up!

    The popsicle picture really is funny! I also enjoyed the pictures of your little scientists! Makes me even more eager to start school in a few weeks.

    These are all wonderful! I had to do a doubletake on the cake burgers and the sleeping popsicle eater. 🙂 I also thought that photo of Fulton Sheen was particularly nice of him… he looks so happy.
