Wow, has it been that long? We've been busy enjoying life (finally). Idaho has turned to out be everything we've been looking for in an American Redoubt community.
Sis is a cheerleader for her high school. She's finishing up her first 4H project (Hercules, her swine). She was elected Honor Queen of her Job's Daughters Bethel. She is in the high school choir and drama club and has her first official, father approved boyfriend. She turned 18 last Saturday. I've never seen her so happy and involved. She started off her birthday by not doing just one act of service but TWO! From 8-10am she served at our local church Temple and from 10-12 she cleaned the fairgrounds with her 4H club. #ProudDad
Macky is finishing up her 4H swine project too. She's looking forward to track season as she seems to have a knack for throwing discus and shot put. She submitted her short story to Deseret Publishing but was turned down. Now she is tweaking her book in hopes of making it just a little bit better. She is very interested in criminal investigation and crime lab stuff. Like looking at blood splatter on a wall and determining the angle and trajectory from where it originated. She was also nominated Outer Guard by her Bethel.
The Queen is starting freshman year and made the cheer team with Sis. She's as pretty as ever and super excited that the nearest town now has an Ulta (makeup store). Her 4H swine is named Queenie and likes to eat dead mice. She enjoys church socials and dances and is having a great time in her elected position as Junior Princess in Job's. She gives me near daily hugs now without me even asking...at age 14!
Boo is the most involved with her swine and enjoys walking "Bacon" around the pasture. She is a Jobie to Bee and attends all the parades and stuff with her big Sisters. She helps me feed the chickens, swine and Lucky and is really into animals.
Running out of phone battery. Will complete post later tonight.
