For Adrianna’s 14th birthday, I took her clothes shopping at Kohl’s. We each ended up getting shirts that are somewhat similar. So this week when she saw I was wearing my new shirt, she told me that she would wear hers so we could match. And she was happy about it! My eyes tear up just […]

May Day
May Day celebration (a couple days delayed since Wednesday was cold!) All the kids made flower wreaths and danced around the May Pole. This was at a friend’s house from church. They hosted several homeschool families for the May Day celebration both this year and last! We all had a great time!
Cities and Knights
One of my favorite ways to spend an evening. Hanging out at Karen’s house, playing Settlers of Catan. #settlersofcatan#citiesandknights Tonight, we tried some new expansions (Fish, Caravan).

Adrianna, being the oldest, had the most complex clues to figure out, although we were both surprised at and proud of how quickly she cracked […]
Night of the Stars
Adrianna participated in a local talent show last night, playing a song from the Nintendo video game, Kirby Star Allies. She won 1st in her age/category, so now she gets to perform again at the “State” contest next week! She’s pretty thrilled (and we as her parents are quite proud!)
Florida Trip (Part 1)
A visit to NASA. It rained the entire day, but we still had a fun and inspiring visit at the Kennedy Space Center on Cape Canaveral. I think Greg probably enjoyed it the most though. (Adrianna totally gets her love of space from her Dad! ) Visiting the Space Center was a “bucket list” item for […]
Snow
The girls couldn’t wait to get outside when they saw the big, beautiful snowflakes yesterday.
Neighborhood S’mores
Our neighborhood had a s’mores night. It was a nice time to meet some of our neighbors, as well as greet those we met at this summer’s food truck event. I am thankful that the forecasted wind waited until the end of the evening! And it is supposed to start snowing in the next couple […]
Caramel Apples
One of our favorite fall snacks: Honeycrisp apples with melted caramel. Yum!
Halloween 2018
Happy Halloween from a llama/rabbit, elephant, and a zany zebra. And a tall unicorn. I love that they made their own costumes this year.
