Breccan had his 5th grade program in November. He looked so DANGED handsome that I had to set up a backdrop and take a picture.
Saying his speaking part. He did pretty good, not too fast, and fairly easy to understand.
This dancing with the crowd happened at BayLea's 5th grade performance, and apparently it has become a tradition. (Or maybe it always was...I'd never been to a 5th grade performance before Bay's). Anyway, the last song, they grab people from the audience to dance with them, and Breccan got BayLea out there. It was hard to get a picture, but I got this one, over exposed and blurry.

The dreaded homework...
Pretty light pictures... If there is pretty light...we must take pictures. At least according to me.
This year we did the Operation Christmas Child shoe box project. We had a lot of fun shopping for some boy and girl, and stuffing the boxes.
Of course, we went overboard...and had to practically SIT on the boxes to make them close.
Next year, I will be more organized and order our labels online so that we can track the boxes afterward. I was last minute, deciding to do it, looking online and finding that we only had a few days before boxes were collected.
Oh, these two girls...two of my favorite people. So goofy together, and even though there is a pretty big age difference, I think they will always be good friends.
They do love each other very much. BayLea has always idolized Leah, and I'm so happy that they are good buddies.

The mimi and the pa.
See that white stuff on Ethan's face? He got BayLea, and then BayLea was afraid to get him, so Mimi got him back with the whipped cream. He is making his famous black bottom banana pie.
Ethan and Breccan went out to the back of the lot to shoot guns. God, guns are loud.
And of course, pretty light alert again!
Ethan's a darned good big cousin to my kids!
