Catch up

I haven’t posted since December, so I am WAY behind.  I am having problems getting videos to upload to Blogger, and I have taken a lot of great videos that I can’t get on here.  And my phone crashed.  I don’t really know where all of my pictures are now, but they’re somewhere on my computer.  Oh well.  Since Claire’s birthday month starts tomorrow, I figured I’d better post the details from the last four months before I get into all of that.

First, for those of you that helped Claire raise money for her church project to feed local kids, she raised over $38!!!  She was SO excited!  The kids at our church campus raised more than $6,000 and filled more than 75,000 backpacks!!!  Thank you for helping her with this!

Claire has taken two sessions of gymnastics and is an amazing gymnast!  She has great balance and strength and flexibility.  I have some great videos…

Claire has learned to read and has recently started writing her name with upper and lower-case letters.

Claire took her first communion on Sunday, March 2nd.  She thought that it was so special to be able to partake.  We have pictures somewhere…

Claire got accepted into Seven Hills Classical Academy!!  We are all very excited about this!  Claire cannot wait to go to school!  We recently attended Kindergarten Round-Up.  Pictures will be posted when I find them.

Claire and Cale got two new cousins – Ashlyn and Brenna.  They are so beautiful!  We can’t wait to meet them and snuggle them!

We went to Washington to celebrate Granny’s 80th birthday.  That was a great trip!

Claire learned to tie her shoes yesterday.  She’s such a quick learner!

Claire’s birthday month starts tomorrow, so there will be many more posts beginning tomorrow.  And I will get the pictures posted!
