February came with more snow. This made Emily very happy! They had a snow day at school and although the school usually assigns work even on snow days, one of the assignments was to go outside and play in the snow.
Emily entered a pie making contest through 4-H. She made a pumpkin pie and a peach pie. She was not allowed to have help, and the crust and whipped cream had to be made from scratch as well as the filling. The pies turned out delicious, and she won first place for her peach pie in her division! They auctioned it off for $140!!
February always brings one of the most special days of the year for our family: Brendan's birthday. He turned 14, which in Arkansas is old enough to apply for a learner's driving permit! He enjoyed a day at the climbing gym and, you guessed it, a DQ ice cream cake. Happy birthday, amazing boy!!
