Saylee's Performance at the Honors Harp Recital

Saylee did so well at the music festival and qualified and was invited to the annual Honors Harp Recital. While there she was able to perform for everyone, and was awarded a scholarship!

And here is a video of her performance…

The refreshments were delicious

La Triviata

We went to the opera!

Fall Fun Day

We had to have a little bit of fun to start out our fall break.

Night at the Arcade

The boys wanted to go into laser tag. The girls were just entertained by the fact that their clothes glowed.

They had fun at all of the games too.

Making Tamales in the Kitchen

We recently put ourselves up to the task of finding a delicious homemade tamale recipe. 

I think we found a keeper!

And everyone had fun and found a way to help out in the kitchen. The boys really enjoyed it.

Cooked the chicken...

Mesa! My favorite part of making tamales!

Soaked the corn husks.

Homemade sauce!

The finished product! {Right out of the steamer!}

They were divine!

Movie Night

The kids know they can earn "movie tickets" for good behavior, and every so often we have a family movie night where they can redeem their tickets for popcorn and candy. Whoever  has the most tickets gets to pick the movie. Whoever doesn't get to pick the movie, doesn't get to complain.

Last weekend was our family movie night.
