Hitcham Lavender Fields, England

We found out that after 16 years in England, we will be heading back to the States in the fall. So, we are trying to do a few things before we leave. One of the things I have never done, was go to one of the lavender fields in England. So Trish and I took Caden, Bella and Carter to Hitcham Lavender Field.   It was a beautiful.  We took a ton of pictures, picked a bag of lavender, ate some lunch, and played on the playground.

Great Heath Sports Day

Joziah had a Sports Day at his school and I was so blessed to be able to root him on. Sports day is similar to our Field Day. Joziah was on the yellow team, so he had to wear a yellow shirt.  The only shirt we had was a neon yellow one and he was convinced that it was green.  He almost didn't leave the house that morning.  Yikes!  Anyway, it was a gorgeous, hot day and I got to hang out with Sarah, Louie's mom, too.

Memories- April- July 2018

So many things happen around here and its a full time job trying to be in the moment while also trying to capture the moment.   Blessings abound!

On April 7th, Bella decided to ask Jesus into her heart.  That means that she has realized that Jesus is her Savior and that she would like to live for Him.  As Christians, this news is what you prayer for.   She prayed about it and made a decision on her own while at Children's Church,  I am so excited that she has Jesus to help her through life's ups and downs.

Sleepover with Devasha and Carter.....Pie Face!

Joziah had a wonderful Nanny named Tasha this year to take him to and from school. This is her son, Carter who was a doll.

Bella has always been a little shy when it comes for performances.  But, this year she tried out to be one of the MCs for the Talent Show.  She did a fabulous job.  We were so proud.

Joziah works hard on his phonics.  As a result, this boy is reading at age 4.

This was a list they made at school for what Megan and Harry would need for the wedding!

The 3rd graders at our school go to Thetford Forest for their Field Day.  They do games, orienteering and the Go Ape rope course.  These are her best friends, DeVasha and Treavan.

Getting ready to go on the ropes course.

It ends with a zip line.

The 3rd graders also did a Spanish performance this year where they danced and sang in Spanish.

Spencer Newcomb had his birthday at a soft paint ball fighting place and invited Bella to try it out.  Joziah was too little but he put on the goggles in celebration.

Bella lasted one game and it hurt so bad she just cheered from the sidelines.
