I just recently decided to have the kids help in the kitchen. My hope was that they would want to eat more of what I was cooking. Guess what, it worked! What a blessing it was for me to have their help too! Thanks boys!

Family Shots
It is hard to believe another year is gone already. I think as I get older, the years start going by faster. The kids are getting so big and independent! It really does seem like just yesterday I was pregnant with Cutie and now she is already 9! CRAZY! It doesn't help when we get our pictures taken! I just look at the pictures and start to feel older...at least I have my kids to keep me young! Happy New Year everyone!

Our First Day of Home School
Here is Little Guy working hard on some coloring. He finished his work early, but he didn't want to leave the school room!

Am I ready? Really?
Maybe it is because I am a teacher...or maybe because I feel so organized...but I really feel ready for Tuesday...our first day of "home school." The curriculum has all finally arrived. My yearly plans are complete. All weekly lessons plans are done. The room is ready...the kids are excited. My desk is finally complete! I don't think I have forgotten anything. WAIT! I don't know who is going to clean my house next week! Ha!

Too Hot To Go Outside
What do you do when it it too hot to go outside? My kids and their friends like to slide down the stairs in a sleeping bag! I was thinking my poor kids have been a little neglected while I was getting things ready for school! NOT! They have been enjoying trying to figure out how to entertain themselves!

Our Home School
We have been very busy ever since we found out our beloved school SACA had to close. (sorry for the lack of posts...it has been a little crazy around here.) Hubby and I tossed around the idea of putting our children into another private school, but none in the area can compare to the education our children received at SACA! (Not to mention how much I loved teaching at the school my children were attending!) We also wanted our children to continue being classically trained. So, we decided the best thing to do was home school our children.
Thankfully, we have some friends who also wanted to have their children home schooled...and asked if I would teach their children right along with my own. My kids are thrilled to have one student each in their "class." (except Little Guy...he is our only Kindergartner!)

Dinner on the beach
There is nothing more "summer" than dinner on the beach! We love going and watching the sunset. The kids played in the ocean, ate dinner, and then went to the shake shack with the dads! It was a perfect evening!
