I began this blog to create an on going yearbook of our homeschool chronicling our highs & lows with photo's and journaling. Through the past two years I have really enjoyed getting to know so many homeschool moms and their families. Being a Homeschoolblogger has been both fun and encouraging. Please make yourself comfortable and enjoy getting to know us and how we learn at home!
How is your summer going? Have you found some time to relax? get to that certain project? garden? read the book that's been at your bedside since February?
I'm enjoying all those things and especially love being able to spend more quality time with the kids (other than school work , ya know?!) For instance, yesterday was just a beautiful day here in NY and we spread a blanket under a shady tree in the backyard and had an impromptu picnic. Afterwards I read two chapters from "The Treasure Seekers" to the boys. Josh doesn't sit still that long but, hey, we were outside so he could wander around and poke with sticks while we were reading.
We had a wonderful time over the Fourth of July weekend. I'm sharing a few pictures of our annual picnic/campout with my sister and her family....
There were 5 tents in all.
That's Jordan and my nephew around the campfire. Burnt marshmallows abound.
Kayla with her "papa"
Jordan with his dad (and my awesome husband! )
Jesse with a cousin. They were so cute with their stuffed animals and little lanterns.
They caught fireflies.
"The Sister" and fabulous hostess.
