Finishing up...

Last week, we met with our homeschool group for Stanford Achievement testing. After 3 days of testing, we celebrated with a pizza party. Well, I say celebrated... I think to everyone else in the homeschool group it was just lunch? Anyhow, we have to wait 4-6 weeks for the test results. We only have a few more things to complete before we will be officially done with school for the year. With that said, I think this will be my last blog for this school year. I wanted to be able to blog more about what we were doing, but there just wasn't enough time.

Our first year at homeschool was quite an experience! A good one, but even better... one we'll never forget. Imagen's favorite subject this year was science, while Addie's favorite was Math. The biggest accomplishments this year: Addie can read, write, & count! & Imagen learned how to multiply & divide! All the other stuff we learned was just icing on the cake! They have successfully survived a year at home with me, oh wait... I can't believe I survived a year at home with them! *laughs* They told me quote, "Momma, we love homeschool... Can we do it again next year?" I hope that we will be able to homeschool next year, but we will have to see where the summer takes us.

Where did the time go?

I think I feel asleep on Halloween, and then woke up on Thanksgiving??? Seriously, the days came & went so quickly. Imagen learned how to multiply & divide, while Addie began learning to add small numbers like 1+2. I was amazed at how quickly they caught on!!! The next thing I know, the girls were making homemade Christmas ornaments & singing christmas carols. We've started a new hobby called geocaching. It's been a really fun thing to do, and it gets us outdoors more often. To learn more about it visit geocaching.com! With each new place we go, we definitely get our fair share of exercise. Well, as always... I have tons of pictures to share!!! Please enjoy!!! Imagen with a dwarf palmetto, Addie's one hardcore tree hugger, and Reagan loves kissing on the wildlife. And of course, the christmas ornaments!!!
