It's hard to believe it's almost Friday! Tomorrow Bryan's parents fly into Vancouver for a week with us. We can't wait to spend time with them and for them to see our new "digs"!:)
Life in the Pichura Family seems to keep up a very busy, steady pace! Micah has a baseball tournament this weekend and three games next week before heading into playoffs. Gramps and Nanny are going to get to know our baseball field well this week!:) The girls finished their grade 2 curriculum this week and Micah finished the rest of his grade 3 too! So, now we move on to "summer folders" full of "review stuff" for them to do...a little each day...and Micah will continue to work on his grade 4 work, Samuel his grade 2 work and Titus is going to be working on his letters! Summer break is not here yet...but the load should lighten a bit from here on out! I did a "trial run" this week and homeschooled all six...I think I am going to need a nap everyday next year!:)
I had some pictures from the week that I thought I would post and a video clip at the end of Caleb saying his provinces and territories! It's a glimpse into life here this past week!:)
The kids took a recycling box and helped Grace turn it into a barn. It blessed my heart to see them spend a couple of hours to do something special for their sister! It was one of those "I just love being a mommy to these six kids" moments!:)
Titus and Caleb were playing with play dough after they finished their school and Titus was so excited to show me what he had made...mounties and the Canadian flag!:)
This one might seem like an odd picture to add...but I thought it was so "fun" and I thought you might too! Grace got it at her girls club at church and I couldn't help but think how fun it would be for all the kids to make one (and then eat it of course). It's just a bunch of gummy candies on a wooden skewer...but it was the "catch of the night" in our house and thought it might be in your house too!

I love hearing how your children are doing...and how exciting to have Byran's parents come for a visit!!
I miss you, but sure am glad you post a blog, or I'd never hear or see how you are all growing and doing! Tell your children how Proud Mrs. Erickson is of their accomplishments!!
Love you ALL!
Ruth
And the worms on a stick is a great idea for a party favor.
What a great feeling it is to have school wrapping up.
And what a fun moment to see all your kids working together to help another.
