School, sports, and dental appointments have been the theme of this month. Some of our fun projects for school this month included drawing self portraits after looking in a mirror, drawing the shape of our faces in the mirror with soap, sculpting our faces, and then drawing our faces on a hard boiled egg. Here is one photo of the last project.

We also used weights to see how many arm curls we could do in one sitting, and then increase it every day for a week. The two youngest surprised us by doing as many as 600 arm curls! Good thing they were only using a 3lb. weight.
Yesterday we traveled all the way to Estero. Our beloved dentist changed locations and wanted us to move with him. We agreed when he offered that all 7 could come on one visit for their appointments, and then another visit with them all for their cleanings. Praise the Lord for favor with this doctor.
Sports also keep us hopping. Because of the rainy fall we have been having, many of our games have been cancelled due to the weather. The girls have a few volleyball games that are indoors so they have been able to keep on schedule better, but our boys' football team has had 3 games cancelled in a row. Last Friday afternoon we traveled to Port Charlotte for a game that also had lightning and we had to cancel. But, PTL, we were able to reschedule for yesterday (Monday) and got the game in. It did rain in the 4th quarter, but no lightning so we finished it. Here are a few photos of the kiddos.
