This is going to be a two-week review since I just didn't have the time to get one published last week.
Speaking of last week, there was important milestone-- Kiddo #1 got his driver's license! Here is he driving off with his instructor to the course. We are very proud of him. :-)
There is nothing like having school time on a sofa or comfy chair. We do a lot of our reading and/or discussions that way. Here Kiddo #4 is showing some work she is doing on the liver for her digestive system lapbook.
In addition to the Digestive System lapbook, they are working on one on the Lewis and Clark expedition. Kiddos 1 and 2 are progressing well with their online classes, as well as Kiddo #1's college class.
Another highlight of the week was the resumption of the homeschool bowling league. The kids all did SO well. They are looking forward to continuing every Friday for the next couple of months. Here are the kids and some of their friends.
One of my absolute favorite things about homeschooling is how close my children are to one another. I found this ping pong set at a local store in their clearance Christmas section for $5. Kiddo 1 and 2 must have played together for over an hour. There was so much laughter. They had me playing some, too. Much, much fun and good memories made. Just LOVE it! They all even challenged hubby to games! :-)
This week, on Wednesday, we had my dad's birthday and my parents' anniversary (yes they were married on his birthday and yes, after 48 years, he still says that she was the best present he ever received. Too sweet). We celebrated at breakfast, dinner and after dinner with a cake that Kiddos 1 and 4 baked themselves.
Looking forward to this weekend, as we are having some friends over for the Super Bowl. Not that I am even interested that much in the game since our team isn't in it and the whole "deflategate" has my opinion of the NFL even more tarnished, but it isn't everyday that you get to hang out and chat with some friends and family. There will definitely be good food and good fellowship.
Hope you have a great weekend, too!
