January Highlights in a Nutshell


Amanda received the Principal's Honor Award for earning a 4.0 GPA for her first semester of high school. We are so proud of her. She worked very hard and learned many valuable lessons in time management. Keep up the great work, Amanda!


Stephie and Daniel are also finding great successes with school. It is hard to believe that the year is already half over. We are learning so much together. In history, we are studying Ancient History. As part of our unit on the Phoenician people, we made Phoenician pita bread. It was yummy with melted butter in cinnamon and sugar.


All-Star Scout, Daniel, received a rank advancement and 7 merit badges at the Scout Court of Honor. He has worked very hard during the past 10 months in Boy Scouts. He is a very decorated scout with hopes of getting his Eagle Scout award by age 13.


Where does this child live anyway? Stephanie has decided to stay "extra warm" by wearing her winter scarf, hat, and mittens to bed. Give me a break~this is California, not Chicago.

{chuckling}...that is exactly what I was thinking...how in the world would she have survived Chicago?! :) Good thing you go to Nauvoo in the summer...

Looks like life is treating you well.

Steph would fit right in here. We are fans of bundling up! Great job to Amanda. (Whoever gave her the award looks just like Jim Rome, by the way.)
