I found it!

  I had to clean and organize the entire room this afternoon, but I found the camera cord UNDER Elyssia's little bed.  It was a really good day and the kids were able to have all kinds of new experiences.  They made new friends and went to S.S.  They really enjoyed going with their cousins and had lots of things to share about their lessons and songs.  It was a rare treat to sit with Scott in church and not have to try to divide my attention between the sermon and the kids. I was also able to take lots of notes, due to the fact that I had a hand free to write with:).  It was different to be in such a large church(close to 600),  The people were very friendly and it was neat to hear so many voices singing and praising the Lord.  I couldn't help but miss our little church though.  I had the opportunity to call a few people from back home today and that helped.  They've had quite a bit of snow since we left.  We are feeling pretty spring-like here.  We wore coats tonight, but took them off several times.  Here are the pictures from yesterday and also a couple from today:

Little Climber

I got both travel buddies!

Trying out Grandma's rebounder.

My turn!

Me too!, but she can't jump without someone holding her hands.

I love it!

Devotions=Caleb is the young Solomon

Scott helping Kiersten with her part.

I'm running away now.

The two schemers who tried to place another man on Solomon's throne.  Caleb wanted to string them up:).

Uncle Jason mummifying Elyssia with mom's blind that fell down:).

Kiersten playing dress up with the big girls.

Garrison in his new moose pjs from Grandma.

Caleigh trying to look mischievous.

We picked this up at the Underground aquarium.

How many cousins does it take to put the turtle in the tub?

Playing with cousins is exhausting!

A "Busy Town" game that we played with Chandler.

The ginormous Kit Kat we found for Chandler.

Cameryn and Caleigh's room.  I LOVE it!

Judah and Nathan

Kiersten watching everybody, wearing her first pair of tennis shoes.

Judah and Gideon(sorry I cut off part of your face Gideon).


Shondra and Cameryn were matching:)

Kiersten visiting Uncle Nathan.(I think he needs his own little girl, but doubt I can convince them of that.)

Cameryn wanted to hold Kiersten, so I pushed them around.(Kipper wanted a ride too).

Having fun?

Elyssia was excited to try a new cereal.

Sitting around visiting.

Shondra took some pictures while we were talking.

Pinecrest Baptist Church is meeting in the school gymnasium until the main auditorium is built.

We had to get a picture together while we were all dressed up.

Kiersten had a cookie at church.  I wanted to get a picture of her leg band.  It has a number on it.  I got a little ticket with the same number and it would have flashed on the screen if I needed to come help her.

This was in the visitor's welcome bag.  A really neat idea!

Caleb's leg band.

Caleb thought his pull up made a great hat. Silly guy!

Happy eating hot dogs.

Kiersten happily pouring her water on her chair.

The turtle is growing in the water!

Some new things to try.
Tonight we went out to Wendys with all of the family to get a bite to eat before heading home.  It was really funny to see the kids interacting with one another.  They love to revolve around Chandler.  I think he enjoys it too:).  We're invited to Chandler's baseball game and Cafe Forte in the evening.  Cameryn will be singing in a fundraiser that Nathan has put together.  I'm not sure if we'll all go, but there's plenty of time to plan it out tomorrow.  We're planning to try to stay a bit more on schedule with the kids, but use the morning to get some errands run.  It's nice to have the free time, but also some activities going on so that we're not at loose ends while the others are working and at school  It's after 10 here now, so I'll be heading to bed.  Til next time...
