Mom & Dad's 50th Anniversary Party
This was the party of a lifetime! I am so fortunate to have been born into an amazing family. I LOVE you crazy Cubans!
Carboard boat regatta
Last year we started the Adventure Boys Club (including one super cute little sister). We have done a lot of fun activities including making swords, wittling, navigation, fire starting, among many other fun projects. This last project has taken us 6 weeks to complete.
Is it possible to build a boat that can sail the length of a 35ft backyard pool out of nothing but cardboard and duct tape? It sure is! The boys and some of their fellow homeschooled friends proved it!
Not only were the kids able to design and build boats without *any* adult guidance or involvement, but all three of their boats made it across the pool three times!
Three teams of three made it across the pool three times. I am so proud of these kids and this accomplishment!

Irish Music
The boys attended an Irish Music camp this summer and found a new appreciation for Irish music and dance. They have good friends that are Irish dancers and play the fiddle and they may have to begin fiddle lessons with their new love for the festive music. They played their tin whistles at camp.
Last week, we also enjoyed an evening concert with the Kildares. The kids all danced and it was such a wonderful night.
