Copper was the only one in her entire school that entered the district science fair. She did a great job!

Here's the kids' lobby at my new work. I love how homey it is and how much light shines through.  

Growing sprouts again. Did you know eating a teaspoon of broccoli sprouts is the equivalent of a few pounds of fresh broccoli?

While waiting for other young women to get to our Valentine's activity, the girls tried a hand at foosball.  Copper is really good!

Copper also had her school play last week. She was a singer and dancer in Anastasia. So fun and beautiful!



I couldn't get any great pictures because of the angle she was at most of the time on stage, but I snagged this one

Her best friend Megan was in the play too, and our cute neighbor and friend Zoey


Micah has been learning from my dad how to shoot and care for guns. She just finished all her computer testing for hunter's education and just passed her field shooting test.  Yay! Now she wants to start putting in for tags to hunt. She has her eyes on a bear tag... ???!!!

I saw this sign in the doctor's office and really loved it.

Easter-ish, belt exams, and more

  Micah's belt exam was last month.  She advanced to the top of three brown belts and her junior black belt exam will be this fall.  She asked me not to tell or invite anyone except Auree... and Auree is her karate friend. She said, "only karate people there except you guys."  Copper was in NY, so it was just Tim and I and Dakota.  Kota's phone died about one hour into the almost four hours we were there, and what a trooper. Haha. Micah is awesome! While waiting they had to do all sorts of "the grind" exercises.  Here she had to put her feet on her friend (boy Ronan) legs and then do push ups. It looked really hard. Jujitsu fighting with friend (girl) Ronan... Three hours in and she just sat and took a break.  She looked beat. I'm grateful for girl Ronan's friendship with Micah.  They're all such great friends with her. Ronan, Kristine, and Micah Ms. Kassie came back to see everyone who was advanced testing! Micah was thrilled; this is her mentor...

She's Here!

Yea! Copper is here and is so beautiful! She was born on June 8, 2009 after a surprise "You're not leaving the hospital" induction. She was 6.13 pounds and 18.5 inches long. She had the cord around her neck twice, so she was this dark haired, albino skin girl with quivering lips. But so cute! She got some color right away and has stayed pink since! Here's a few pics...
 We went to California! Micah has her annual karate in the woods event through ISKA, and this year we decided to take the whole family and go a few days early. It kind of stinks because the girls had 4 days of school and then we took off! I don't regret it though. They are hard workers and they got caught up pretty fast.  We got there really early Wednesday morning after an early flight, and started off the day off with a baseball game with the San Francisco Giants. Micah is now baseball's biggest fan. Especially the Giants, and especially number 51. I can't remember his name but she knows everything including his stats. 🤣 Wednesday we also walked Pier 39 and about exhausted ourselves from a very long day.  Thursday we hit the national monument and visitor center of the Golden Gate bridge and then walked along it until we got a pretty decent view of the ocean. So pretty! After that we spent the whole rest of the afternoon at the San Francisco zoo. I think this was Dakota...
