Exciting day in school yesterday!

We pulled this guy's tooth out!

Field Trip Day

Our homeschool group planned a field trip to The Bakery on Main and the Fuzzy Duck (a local bookstore) this last week. The kids had a lot of fun learning about baking and books!

Off to Gymnastics!

 Yesterday Abigail went back to Gymnastics and Claire had her first class! They were so silly and funny trying to get them ready. We were a few minutes late getting to class and so I rushed them in. I was trying to get both undressed and ready. Class had already started and all of a sudden this is what I heard and saw from my little social butterfly. (Insert really loud voice and a wave)

"HI GUYS! I AM BACK AND WE HAVE A NEW STUDENT...MY SISTER CLAIRE!!" She then ran around to join the class but realized she had forgotten to take her shoes off so she says, "OH, NO...MY SHOES." She ran to give me her shoes and went back to sit down while saying, "OK, I AM READY...WE CAN BEGIN NOW!!" Oh. My. I was not prepared for that. There was a lot of laughing and I was so amused. Abigail is so boisterous and so very dramatic. Is is so funny! Claire, of course, was quiet and just sat down by Abby not saying a word. It was really snowy last night so Claire was actually the only student to make it in her age group. Ms. Patty took her half way through the class so she could work with her alone and see what she could do. I will have to say I was a little stunned watching little delicate and petite Claire do so much and not be afraid or timid at all! It may just be her thing. It sure was fun to watch these girls have a great time at gymnastics!

 

Sledding Day

Ryan & Ty Horton came to play in the snow yesterday with the boys. The dads helped build a ramp! The boys all had a great time. Andrew slid all the way down to the creek and got quite muddy. Carson decided to go head first and it did not end well...he face planted right into the snow..TWICE! Ouch! (And that was before I got out there so no pics of Him)

Art

What fun today at Art. Carson told me that he doesn't like working with the pastels (chalk)...he doesn't like getting his hands dirty. So funny. So thankful to have this opportunity for them to create!

Why yes, it is a Star Wars Saturday Morning!

It didn't take long after turning on Star Wars this morning that one little boy ran down stairs to get the light sabers so they could fight during the fight scenes!
