Summer is coming, summer is coming!

4/14/2012

The summer is coming, the summer is coming!  Does that sound familiar?  It's from "The British are coming, the british are coming!". :)  Summer is right around the block for us... we have about 10 more weeks of school left, and then, "School's out for SUMMER!".  

I can't believe how fast the year has gone by.  I also can't believe how much we have posted.  We haven't posted since Christmas!  That's bad. 

We have had many busy weeks since Christmas, and we have all been doing so much.  Rachel has been making great strides in school.  She has been to the Honor Roll breakfast many times this year, and we couldn't be happier.  SPROCKET is wonderful, and he helps Rachel on a daily basis. He also makes a great pet when he is not working.

Jess has also been doing well in school.  She was able to go to the Honor Roll breakfast many times this year.  She is doing track and field again this year, and loves running with the team.  She has so much fun, and has so many wonderful friends on the team.

Kanani has been doing very well in school this year.  She has been getting wonderful grades, and we are all so proud of her for being able to accomplish such great things.

The weather has been getting warmer (but today it is raining), and we have been going outside a lot.  We haven't taken any photos yet though.  We'll do our best to get some up soon. 

Everyone else (who is not in our immediate family) is doing well.  Hopefully they can update themselves and let you know how they've been doing.  We are also so thankful to be healthy, and for wonderful friends.  We know there are so many people who aren't as fortunate out there.  

I am sure Lily is posting photos tomorrow.  We will try to get some up in a few weeks!

Thanks for checking in!
Kanani, Jess and Rachel

Introducing Cecile Rey!

1/3/2012

1 Comment

 
We would like to take this opportunity to cover a few things... and introduce a new doll.  As many of you know Lily got Cecile Rey for Christmas.  She hasn't posted any photos yet; so we thought we would take this opportunity to post some photos of Cecile. 

Cecile is so beautiful and she makes a great addition to our family. I don't want to make you wait any longer to see Cecile, so here she is:
Picture
Cecile with snow behind her.  Lily's family went away for Christmas.

Bud with Cecile.  Don't they look perfect for each other?  We are so blessed to have another friend.  We know what a blessing it is to be given the gift of a great friend.
Picture
Argos (renamed Bud), our newest pet!  He's so big though, it takes 2 of us to walk him.

We truly apologize for not posting any photos lately.  We have been so busy and we haven't really had time to update.  We will try to update our photos and bring you all up-to-date with our busy and hectic lives soon!

Hi Everyone, Unfortunately this will be our last post (from camp... not forever). :(  This is really sad for us, and we hate to leave. (Now onto the fun!!)

Today we were lucky enough to go berry picking. :)  We got to pick raspberries... LOTS and LOTS of raspberries. :)  Here are some photos!!

Everyone (L-R: Kanani, Rachel, and Jess with their berries!

Well, we certainly enjoyed our week at camp.  We hope that you enjoyed it just as much as we did. :)  We will post soon (we promise). 

Until next time (probably tomorrow),
Rachel, Kanani and Jess. :) :) :)

Crochet Lessons- by Jess

Kanani's flowery hair tie... made by Jess (crocheted)

Hey Everyone,
Today we learned got to learn how to crochet!  It was really cool, and really fun and easy!  I just made sure it was loose so I could see the loop on the hook go through. :)  I made a string probably 5 feet long. :)  I also made a hair band (with no elastic) that Kanani is modeling in the photo. :)  Once you get your chain as long as you want, just go through another part of the chain and then make another chain and then go through the original chain again (to make the petal part of the flower).  I will make a video sometime with help from Lily on it. :)

After crocheting, we got to make a head band (which Rachel took a photo of mine on me!).  Today's craft activity was so much fun. :)  Kelly has done a great job at picking activities. ;0  I am definitely glad camp was extended until Sunday... hopefully it will be extended again until the Wednesday after Sunday. :) That would be great!!

It was so much fun to be able to learn a new skill at camp. :)

Here is another photo of what we did. :) 

Have a great day,
~Jess~

Hey Everyone,
Sorry for the lack of posting. :-)  It was Rachel's turn to post yesterday but she wasn't feeling too well, poor thing. :( 


Hopefully we can do a good job at posting photos frequently (like Lily is trying to) ;0.

Above is a photo of us with our findings. We came in 2nd!  You can't always be first is what Kanani said.  She's right ;0  Below- is a photo of just the items we gathered.

Picture
We had to find a fern leave (found by Rachel), a rock (also found by Rachel), a purple flower (found by Kanani), a yellow flower (found by me- Jess), and a maple leave (found by Kanani).  I am so happy that we won 2nd place, and best of all, had fun. ;)

We only have one more day of camp.  We are all going to Pine Lake County Fair. ;0  I can't wait. :)  We will be sure to post some photos. :)
Jess. :)

A Mistake

7/25/2011

Hi Everyone,

I hope you didn't all go by the book I told you we used today... that is the wrong book!  Here is a photo of the book that we really used (and this time I am not joking or lying! haha). 
Picture
This is a great book... the but loop closure is a little tricky!  Lily is posting a video on Wednesday to help everyone make this work a little easier!

I hope nobody is mad at Jess!  Really- she is great, we just took a photo of each book and she just accidently posted the wrong one!

Have a great day

!! Rachel!!

Jewlery Making- by Jess

Hi Everyone,

I am so happy that Lily set this up. :)  This will be so much fun. :)  I can't wait to hear some of your feed back. :)  Hopefully soon, we can get everyone to post... that would be at least 24 categories... just with the 21 American Girl Dolls... Lily has at least 10 more that would need to post too. :)

Today, we had a tour of the camp, and met all of the campers, there were 100 campers all different age ranges.  Some were 5 and some were almost 18!  That would be so exciting to be that old. :) 

Today's main activity was jewelry making.  It was a lot of fun.  The necklace we made looks really nice on Kanani... and a similar bracelet looks great on me (according to Rachel).   I will show some photos in a slide show of the book we made them out of and some photos of a necklace just with ribbon on Kanani, and a bracelet on me. :)  You can click on the photos on the side to see them... you don't have to wait for them to appear big. :) 
I have another photo of Rachel, I just have to find it... I will post it when I do. :)

Have a great day, Jess

PS:  There is a video coming soon on Lily's page I think about the 2 loops... that's why I mentioned it... the Button Loop Clasp is hard because sometimes the wire broke. :(  So we used another clasp demonstrated in the new video coming soon. ;)
