The Holmes Family: May 2013
http://thebradholmesfamily.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Brad, Lauren, Jillian, Faith, and Anna. Tuesday, May 28, 2013. We left our house at 6 AM on Saturday morning, so we could spend a day exploring Jamestown and Yorktown. We studied early American history this last year, so it was a fantastic "field-trip" for our family. After nearly three hours of driving, we made it Jamestown! It was exactly as I envisioned it being, pretty swampy! The girls discovered what typically was packed for a voyage to the Americas. The girls volunteered to be a part of the milita...

Brad, Lauren, Jillian, Faith, and Anna. Friday, March 14, 2014. The last couple of times we have celebrated Christmas with Brad's family, we have ordered Chinese food and enjoyed a relaxing evening together! This year was no exception, it was the perfect ending to a busy day at the science museum. Mimi and PawPaw gave each of the grandkids a new set of pajamas and slippers for Christmas. Faith got two new games for her Leap Frog Leap Pad from Mimi and PawPaw! Then, it was sleepover time for the kids!

The Holmes Family: Throwback Thursday
http://thebradholmesfamily.blogspot.com/2015/01/throwback-thursday.html
Brad, Lauren, Jillian, Faith, and Anna. Thursday, January 8, 2015. I LOVE taking pictures, but after seven years of adding thousands of photo to this computer, we are running out of room on our hard-drive. Anyway, I am trying my best to clean out some photos and today I found a folder entitled "Reading with the Holmes's"! Jillian was just learning to read and was practicing on her sisters! Faith was trying to read too, but Jillian wasn't too sure about it. She has a Dora nightshirt over her white pajamas!

http://thebradholmesfamily.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
Brad, Lauren, Jillian, Faith, and Anna. Thursday, June 12, 2014. Faith was in my bathroom today and discovered a little mirror in my drawer. She said, "Mirror, Mirror, who is the fairest of all? Then she quickly answered with a huge smile on her face, "God! She has never seen the movie Snow White but we have read the story. I thought it was precious that she knew on her own that God is the most beautiful. Brad and Lauren Holmes. Thursday, June 12, 2014. Monday, June 2, 2014. Jillian didn't realize that I...

The Holmes Family: July 2013
http://thebradholmesfamily.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Brad, Lauren, Jillian, Faith, and Anna. Wednesday, July 31, 2013. Today is my mom's birthday and my sisters' birthday. My mom would have turned 55 today, but instead of celebrating life with her loved ones on Earth, she is celebrating eternal life with her Maker in Heaven. This morning when Jillian saw this photo of my mom on my sister's FB page, she said to me, "Mom, I thought that was you for a minute! And Brad sweetly added to that sentiment in his e-mail to me! Brad and Lauren Holmes. As Jillian styl...

The Holmes Family: December 2013
http://thebradholmesfamily.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Brad, Lauren, Jillian, Faith, and Anna. Saturday, December 7, 2013. A Whirlwind of New Beginnings. In retrospect, I wish I had been able to chronicle our journey as we moved, but I will admit it was a crazy, busy time! But I am thankful I am finally getting the chance to give you a little glimpse into our month of September now. The day after that was the first day of Adventure Club. We took this picture with our friends (who are homeschooling for this first time this year) after club. It was super cute ...

The Holmes Family: August 2013
http://thebradholmesfamily.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Brad, Lauren, Jillian, Faith, and Anna. Thursday, August 29, 2013. I don't have an iPhone to unload all my random photos, but thankfully, my camera does a pretty good job of taking random photos for me. :-). Yes, Anna is wearing long-sleeved snowflake pajamas in the heat of summer! They are her favorite PJs. They are a super comfy cotton and she doesn't like to have any blankets on her at night. Some of the movies we have seen this summer for FREE with popcorn and a drink are:. How to Train Your Dragon.
