Skeletal System

This kit was a gift and I broke it out this week as we began the skeletal system. His name is Bones and the boys put him together in about 10 minutes. 

Quiche a la 10 year old

Just finished an amazing dinner that my boy made. With a little help from me and his little brother, we had a glorious quiche. I have a doubleheader tonight at the ballfields. Not sure how I'm going to play ball with this quiche in my tummy!

Journaling

Writing is always more fun with a dog

Harvest Moon

Enjoying the beautiful night and the Harvest Moon over our house. 

Charlemagne's Crown

Finished up our history lesson this week by making Charlemagne's crown. 

Breakfast School

Chess Club

First chess club meeting so far this fall. 

Mom's softball games

The boys love coming to the field when I play my softball games. Last night was a beautiful night and they ran around with other kids while I played. After I took this picture, they layed down and rolled their bodies down the hill. Reminds me of when I was a kid. 

Adventure Boys Club - Xiphos

Today was our first Adventure Boys Club. The boys made Ancient Greek Xiphos out of PVC, pipe insulation and duct tape. After everyone was finished building, they went outside and battled. So much fun!

Hike, lost tooth and a horse

We had a fun but short hike at Finch Park today. One kid had a bloody hand, one kid lost a tooth, we found a horse and a cellar. I'll call it a success. 

Rodent Removal Specialist

Our dog killed his 4th opossum. Eww

First day of School fall 2014

Our first day of school went beautifully! I have the best students! The teacher showed up with a dog, wearing athletic clothes and chewing gum. 

We celebrated by going out to dinner and coming home and watching a movie. I love my life and my family ❤️

Never too big to sail a Lego Boat

Minecraft Day

Enjoyed an afternoon of Minecraft with our buddies. Love these kids!

Top Golf

The boys and I enjoyed driving some balls at Top Golf this morning. I've never done this and had such a great time. The boys played Pokemon with friends and goofed off between their turn. I highly recommend this place. It was the COOLEST!

First Day of Science Class 2014

Even though the picture makes Carson look miserable, they both love their science classes. Cameron is in grade K-3 with some of his best friends and Carson is in the 4-6 grade. They began the year with Physics.

Good Friends

Had a playday with our good friend today. The boys had a blast playing nerf and composing music. I love these kids!

Walk to Breakfast

It's a beautiful morning. We love walking to Fuzzys to get a breakfast taco. A 2.6 mile power walk, Pokémon battle, breakfast and walking the dog - all in one! Multitasking at its best.  

Hiking Group- Heard Science Museum and Sanctuary

Fun 2.5 mile hike! At the end, the kids added to their nature journals ❤️
