My Guys - Baseball edition

Scot is able to help coach B's baseball team this year. His first game was tonight.

I was so glad to be able to catch this sweet moment between my guys as they were planning a strategy for B's at bat. What a special season this is going to be!

Celebrity Day

From the time B heard that there was going to be a celebrity day at co-op, he planned to be a part of the Robertson family. You have heard of them right? 

Our family loves watching Duck Dynasty and it was only fitting that he become a Duck Commander for the day :)

Science - Model of Mercury

S loves science and doing any kind of hands on projects.

We have been studying the planets this semester in science. We have done several projects and reports along the way. Today, after learning about Mercury, S made a model of Mercury. She loved every second of this quick project.

Pajama Day 2013

We had Pajama Day at co-op this semester and 

M was the only one of my kids who wanted to participate!

She LOVES penguins and was so excited to show off her penguin slippers :) I am glad she did not think she was too old to go to school in her pj's!

Valentine's Day Wreath

E made this cute  Valentine's Day wreath in her co-op class. I love it and am so glad I get to benefit from her craftiness!

Christmas Visit

We are so blessed to have several friends who live in our small town that also homeschool.

This year for our Christmas Party we first went to a local assisted living home and sang Christmas carols, played the piano and visited with the residents. We all loved it so much!

One of the residents mentioned how they love this time of year because people come and visit. This saddened me because I know I am guilty of thinking of these types of ministries only around the holidays!

We, as a group, have decided that we would make this a regular outing for our children. We plan to go back and play games and do crafts with the residents throughout the coming year!

12's

Didn't everyone get a 12/12/12 at 12:12 picture? 

We did and because we were on vacation, we were able to get all 6 of us in the picture!
