Anne is eating cereal. Still not napping. Crying a lot. Wanting to be held all the time. Still super-duper cute.

I've been exercising 4-5 times a week. Eating.....better. Down 6 pounds. I am thrilled to be moving in the right direction but still feel daunted by the long road ahead.
We have continued to meet with our history and science co-op through the summer. Last week, we talked about the Trail of Tears. Sad, sad stuff. We ended on a lighter note with face paint.

Yep, even me.
We discovered a new park in our little city. We spent a perfect evening playing on the playground, kicking soccer balls, rolling down the hills, swinging and enjoying the fabulous view and sunset.



Emma has some weird cyst on her eye.
I photographed my first wedding! I totally loved it. I know I made some mistakes out of inexperience but I think on the whole everything turned out well. I hope I get to do it again. And again. I'll be posting pictures here soon if interested.
We went to the open house at IMFT (Dave's work). We entertained ourselves for almost four hours with carnival games, an inside tour with lots of educational stops, lunch and a climb inside a fire truck. We are so blessed that Dave has such a wonderful job.
We started school yesterday. Emma thought that was unfair since the rest of the neighborhood goes back on Thursday. What can I say? I'm just a mean mom. Of course, I have big plans for the school year. New curriculum to try out. Favorite curriculum to continue. Lots of art/craft/cooking/fieldtrip ideas to complete. This is our sixth year. Suddenly, we are the veteran homeschoolers. When did that happen?It feels great to be getting back to our regularly scheduled program.

Amen, sister, about being back on a schedule! Congrats on 6 years of homeschooling. What a great accomplishment. And hooray for cute babies who are also little terrorists (that's what we call Samuel because he has to have his way all the time or he screams). Good luck with the new school year!
That picture made my heart happy too. Well, all the pictures make my heart happy. Hey, we (meaning Dad) bottled pounds and pounds of chicken yesterday. Beef today. That also makes my heart happy.
Ah. Homeschooling. It sounds wonderful. I'm afraid to take the leap - but that is a blog post in and of itself. Way to go on six years - no small thing.
