I don't know where April has gone but I see I've forgotten it here. Rather than tell you all about the busyness, I just picked some fun photos to share. Here you go...
This was our Easter egg hunt with 4 other families. Lots of candy, laughs and sunny weather. So good to have Spring here.
Spiderman & Boo worked tirelessly on this "indian home", inspired by the book, "Naya Nuki - the Shoshoni girl who ran." The book was great but I love to see my kids try to live it out. They wove branches together for walls & even put in flooring. Everyone thought it was so cool that Jaybird and Goose began working on their own huts.
Here are the kids playing on Grandpa's 4 wheeler. We planted trees, played in the creek and did some fishing that day. Family memories.
On top of all the family fun, I was so thankful to attend a Home School Conference in St. Louis earlier this month. In my 5 years of home schooling, I had heard of these "strange opportunities" but never dared "dip my toe into that pool". Wow, have I been missing out. Not only were there some wonderful breakout sessions and great opportunities to look closely at curriculum choices, the encouragement from those who have done this for YEARS and then seeing SO MANY other families who have chosen to school their children at home - it was just what I needed. I am ready and even excited to continue on this journey of learning with and from my children. What a special gift!
