Settling Down

So, my last post had an accurate title. It's been way too long and way too busy and crazy. The home schooling went really well with the kids and we had a great year. It got a little crazy at the end when I realized that I had been failing to teach Hannah the things that she needed to know. Here are a few of the fun things we did during the school year.

We had a lot of fun visiting the Orr Family Farm.

We had lots of bon fires, much to the kids' delight (Dave's too).

And, we were able to take a tour of the State Capitol building.

The school year was great and the kids learned a TON! It was a lot of work for me but it paid off. The curriculum I was doing was part of a public homeschool option and I had to make sure to do certain things. So, I stayed really busy with all of that.

Well, toward the end of the school year things started changing for us. It started with Matthew tripping over the dog and breaking his arm....

We took a fun field trip to the zoo.

Rachel had a birthday! She had a party at the local roller skating rink. It was lost of fun.

Then things really changed.........

And hopefully I will be able to post more later when the kids aren't quite as needy......
