I love doing art at home.
I pick art projects from www.artprojectsforkids.org and do them in whatever moments we can spare.

Katriel got some dinner from Ba…
while the girls taught Poppy how to play Apples to Apples…
Game night
We don’t do stuff on Hallowe’en and frankly, we were exhausted after four busy night’s worth of activities. So we tremendously enjoyed getting our jammies on early and having a family game night.
Do you have any idea how loud Yahtzee is with 8 of us?

Chase Farms
Sometimes you miss the forest for the trees.
We drive by a farm market almost every time we go out, yet I had never taken Johanna. And it had been a few years for the bigger girls.
Each time we drive by now Johanna exclaims, “The pumpkin patch, Mawm! The PUMPKIN PATCH!”
Wait until she realizes we can pick berries there, as well.
All three girls earned their AWANA gear
Marie had a lot more to memorize in order to earn her t-shirt, handbook, and bag. We were pretty pleased for her. 🙂
Despite her smile, she was pleased as well. ♥
Doesn’t every baby do this?
Are the stripes the cause?
Katriel ~ 2013
Marie ~ 2005
Every Butler baby has spent countless hours on Daddy’s lap at the dinner table. Or in this case, the ice cream table.
She knew she was missing something special.
We found her a treat, too.
AWANA crazy hair night
The girls are all doing AWANA this year at a nearby church. We are so excited to be part of this excellent paraministry. We are particularly excited that Johanna can be part of it. She is a Cubbie, Tabitha is a SPARKS, and Marie is a TnT. They got to do a crazy hair night and both Johanna and Tabitha have earned their bags and gear. Marie was a bit confused on what her objective was the first two weeks, but I think we have that all cleared up. She should get her gear soon.
Crazy hair night was a TON of fun.
