Washington State or Bust!

Uncle Kevin is officially on his mission. We talked to him on the phone for the last time today. Now, we can just write him letters and e-mails, which he can read once a week... We won't see him again for another 2 years.
Since he is headed to Washington State, the girls did some pages about Washington to put in their notebooks. I will share pictures of their notebooks soon. They are turning out really great. In case you want to do the same with your kids, here are the links to the pages I used for my girls:
