An Artist in the Making

She was bored while watching something so she whipped this up. I am not sure where she gets it from, but her art skills continually impress me.

Elisabeth’s 1st Spelling Bee

There were 13 other contestants 4th - 8th grade in this Spelling Bee put on by a local homeschool group. Elisabeth was very nervous about being in front of a crowd. Overcoming her anxiousness, she made it through five rounds before misspelling the word "pennant."  Her consolation was the relief of being done with the experience and a newfound confidence for her next competitive exercise. 

It was a great opportunity and one in which we will look for again in the future.
