4-H Cake Show

 And to continue the busy schedule into the week, we had the 4-H cake show this evening! We started the baking when we got back home Sunday evening and finished up baking/decorating today before the show. We had two third place winners!

August/September Birthday gathering

 Lito and Lita had their annual celebration for the August and September birthdays today. We had a nice lunch, lots of swimming and yummy desserts!

All of the birthday honorees (minus Allia and Mariana due to other obligations!).

Victorian Ball

We had a Victorian Ball at our parish for homeschooling families. We got together ahead of time to mend/adjust dresses and practice dances, and a great group of girls came to get ready at our house beforehand. Some of us had to go to mass before the dance, so sadly I didn't get photos of the girls before the dance. But there are plenty from the ball. It was such a fun family event.

A fun evening of dancing was had by all! 

Middle School Day Camp

Stephen and Anastasia attended day camp at church this week. They had confession, 3 daily masses, a trip to Grand Station and finished Friday with a trip to a water park!

No photos of Stephen and his friends....girls are so much more willing to be photographed! This is a photo of a bunch of the guys at a birthday party that happened this week.

Cousins visit

 Lito brought Julian and Benji to visit for the day. We played at the house all morning and then went to the pool for the afternoon. They had a great time together and were all sad when it was time for them to head back. It was so sweet!
