Creations Classes

I've had this post in my drafts folder for quite awhile and I'm just now getting it up here.  I started it almost a year ago and somehow never seemed to get it finalized!  Needless to say, I've added on to it and here it is... Enjoy!

Recently my family has been going out to Indiana for Creations Classes through Young Foundations.   A few weeks ago they left on a Monday evening and drove through the night, after picking up three of our cousins along the way.  They arrived on Tuesday morning in time to freshen up and go to their classes at the YF Fieldhouse!  (This post is sort of a compilation of Creation photos from the trips they've made over the past few weeks!)



 Elaina (a friend from IN), Hope, Elainah, Joy, Faith (cousin), Lillia, & Anna (cousin)
 

 Joy and Elainah went with their age group for a field trip at Voice of God Recordings. 

Here they are getting dropped off onto the bus.
 

They had a great time and were bubbling over with enthusiasm when they got back!
 

 Lincoln (cousin), Joshua, and Joshua (another friend from IN)



Lincoln and Joshua made crosses in their woodshop class.

 This little guy seems to be enjoying himself! :D

 Lillia, Anna, Hope, Faith, and Autumn (friend from IN) with their projects.
 

Lillia & Hope's craft class project

 Lillia's added hand towel embellishment from sewing class...
 

...and Hope's.
 

 In the past few months Joshua, Lillia, Hope, Joy, and Elainah have been able to attend quite a few of the Creations Classes.  Here are a few pictures of their past projects...
 

Every class has a lesson behind the project.  In this class, Elainah made a greenhouse. The lesson was the importance of not being a hybrid Christian plant that needs to be babied in a greenhouse.

Joshua is in the Workshop classes for boys and so far he's made a yo-yo, checkerboard, cross, and fishing rod holder.  (since then he has also made a Sword, Log cabin birdfeeder, and a shelf)

Joy and Elainah with their boats, apostles, and Jesus craft.

One week Mommy flew out with all of the children to classes... 

This was David's first time to go to Creations with his sisters!

(after his birthday in May:)

They had some time between the last class and their flight home so they went to Schimpff's candy store.

Benjamin wanted some nickel candies too!

Creations classes took a break over the summer and have just started up again for the year.  Dad took everyone except Benjamin & I out this past week for their classes.  They all had a very fun time with their friends and the projects they did turned out great:)

 

Joy, Elainah, and David all made felt apple trees.

 

 Joshua made a shelf...

Lillia and Hope are working on making 6 placemats each.

 

On their way home they had a connecting flight in LaGuardia, NY but were too late to catch it.  The next flight not being until 6 the next morning, Mom and I drove up to get them... we were getting updated through texts and they seemed to be having a fun time waiting for us to arrive!

 

 

Have a great day!

Autumn has arrived...

 

The weeks just fly by without me noticing it's been 17 days since I posted last! 
We've been keeping busy so here's a little post to catch you all up on the happenings around our home recently...
 

Mom taught a Keeper's meeting at our house, all about different coloring techniques.  

She and Lillia saw an idea on pinterest and made this cool crayon canvas.



Lillia showed everyone how to watercolor and they made two cards...

 

 

 



Mom also put together a little book to help them memorize Psalms 148, she put a picture for them to color along with every verse.  They will all be reciting Psalms 148 at the Nature Night coming up in November.



 

A "rainbow" selection of drinks...

Our Amish neighbors across the street were harvesting their corn for silage...



Lillia snapped a few pictures through the window one day...

Mom got this little recliner chair for $2 at a yard sale and it fits David just perfect:)

stretch your imagination and maybe you can make out that he tried to write his name by himself:)

Fall means pumpkins from the garden!

Elainah made us all chuckle when she came in to announce there were neck "pillows" in the garden:)

 

Have a wonderful day & God bless you!:)

In all thy ways acknowledge  Him, and He shall direct thy paths.

Happenings from the weekend...

Last weekend before our Cape Henlopen trip we had the young people over for a bonfire and volleyball...Elainah and David went with me to pick Justin up from the airport before everyone arrived.  I thought this picture of them waiting for him to walk out was cute:)

 

It's always fun to get together with our friends... 

 

 fun with the cousins :)

 On Saturday we attended the wedding of Mr. & Mrs. Leadingham

 

 

Roseanna & Danielle, beautiful bridesmaids :)

 

 



 Mommy carved a swan out of honeydew for the dinner...

 

 There was also a popcorn bar when you walked into the reception hall...

 

 

 





Parents of the bride

 

 



Aunt Rebekah and her family did an amazing job coordinating the reception meal. 

Many people pitched in together to make the evening enjoyable for all attending.
