Ashley and Emma participated in spring volleyball this year. Neither one of them have ever played before, so it was definitely a learning experience. Emma did figure out how to get her serve over. Well once or twice anyway, Ash was pretty good at digging.
A quick trip to home depot on the way home.
Emma at the net.
These two went through a rough patch a while back. I thought maybe they would get along better if they were sharing a room. They thought it would be a good idea, but changed their minds (during a fight) half way through the move. I told them they still had to move in together because I had already done a lot of work and spent some $. So they were moving! A year later, It has been the best thing ever for them! They rarely disagree, still do, but not anything like they used to and they seem to like each other pretty well.
They got asked to play a duet in chruch and even got along while practicing for that (for the most part)
I cant even tell them apart from the back? Can you??
I love my big girls. They make my life so much easier. I feel pretty blessed to have such good girls.
The girls finished up the year with a Christmas Recital. They did well (we could have practiced a LOT more) but it went ok. They are really improving in piano! Ashley has been playing in Young Women’s every once in a while. I am so happy for them to be pianist!
Good work girls!
Ash and Emma got going on the makeup and hair before a Halloween birthday party they went to. They are going to love these pictures when they are older!!
Silly girls!
Ashley and Emma finally learned to move the pipe by themselves. I think it may have to do with $$$. Whatever works! I don’t know many 12 and 10 year old girls who move pipe I think it’s pretty cool!
Justin just caused too much conflict out “helping” them so he and Claire got some good jobs done around the house when the girls would go out to move pipe. I can never have my walls and baseboards too squeaky clean!!
I love all of the summer time work!
Ashley and Emma did great in their final dance review also, ACCEPT they wouldn’t smile! It was all concentration for them!
