March

This March has had a lot of activity. Mikayla went to a weekend camp with American Heritage Girls.  She earned a photography badge and learned a lot about photo shop.  It was the first time she went to camp without me. Here is a photo of her cabin she stayed in.  I hope to have some of her photos she took posted later.

Here are a few random photos of Elyana. The first was for a day at school where she could dress like a cowgirl.  I think she made an excellent cowgirl!  The others are her spring school picture day.  She looked so cute!  Her teeth are coming in nicely since we had three of them extracted a few months ago (2 extracted 6 months ago making it 5 teeth pulled total).  She has an appointment in a few weeks with the orthodontist.  We also have an eye check up for her due to complaints of things being blurry.  Poor kid.  She has inherited my eyes and my teeth it seems.

Elyana is still enjoying playing with homemade slime.  Here's the recipe if you are interested:
1 tsp of Borox dissolved in one cup of water.  In a separate container, mix 1/2 cup of Elmer's glue with 1/2 cup of water.  Add food color and glitter to this mixture if you want.  Then, pour Borox mixture into glue mixture.  Stir until goop forms.  There will be a lot of excess water.  Scoop out the slime and begin to work it with your hands until it solidifies.
