We've had a few busy months here at the Rogers household. So, to update, I thought I'd post by month:
March this year started off with a bang -- We sent our dossier to Ethiopia and began our wait for the little boy we are adopting. (See the post "
Officially Waiting"). We also had a lot of fun with the
March Madness Bracket Fundraiser. Thank you all for participating!
The following week began a very busy season for me. I was the director of our homeschool fellowship's spring production, and we held auditions that day. We rehearsed twice weekly for our show on May 12th (which was a complete success--Yay!). Here's a few pics from dress rehearsal:
 |
| Singing "Everyday Heroes" |
 |
| "Everyday Heroes...giving help, giving hope... they show the love of Jesus everywhere they go!" |
 |
| From the Gideon Scene: "2 bits, 4 bits, 6 bits, a dollar! All for the Israelites stand up and holler!" |
 |
| Esther Scene: King A extends his golden scepter to Esther |
 |
| Rocks in Jerusalem's broken wall in the Nehemiah scene |
 |
| Trumpeters during Nehemiah's Scripture reading |
 |
| Aren't they all darling? |
Meanwhile, the 24th was a busy day when my hubby and the 2 younger kids went bowling with their cousins for a birthday party. The same day, my oldest daughter and I went to the barn where we ride for a one day horse camp:
 |
| KK leading "Meg" into the arena. The 2nd horse is my boy "C" |
 |
| a few arena exercises |
 |
| Playing Red-Light-Green-Light on horseback |
 |
| KK riding "Meg" for the trail ride |
 |
| Carrot Race: "Meg" wins! My boy "C" is nowhere in sight--lazy ;) |
 |
| Later in the day, 24yo "Story" bursts ahead for the win! He sure wanted that carrot! |
We ended the month on Spring Break. Our riding instructor went out of state, so I had barn duties for the week. I took the time to work on cantering my "new" horse (new to me--he's a 17yo). It wasn't pretty, but we're both getting the hang of it--he's an off-track thoroughbred and I'm (maybe) an intermediate rider:
Enjoy the pics and video... will update on April soon!
