A touch of Ugh


Not the best of days today in terms of our homeschooling adventure, but as I write this I am already feeling better about tomorrow's prospects. Earlier today not so much... you know it's bad when the teacher has to leave for a time out. I definitely had some moments of frustration and doneness today. Still I would say the positives outweigh the negatives at this point. I love having such an active part in helping the kids learn new things and being able to witness the lightbulb moments that happen. It really does make it all worth while right there.

The Big Game


This past weekend we had our first game and it was definitely cute. The kids don't really have a good grasp of what they are doing yet, but there is still time for all those little details. The best part was that they had fun... well mostly. Lorelai has made it known that she would rather be only dancing (poor Dada). We are hoping that if she sticks it out this season maybe she will come to enjoy it a bit more, but if she doesn't that's ok too.
Kellen was often right in the thick of things, really seemed to keep up and was energetic throughout the whole game. We were very proud of both of them and look forward to the rest of their games.

We didn't get a lot of great pictures unfortunately (something about actually trying to watch them play), but here are a few cute ones:

Beware the swarm: Beehive Soccer!


The kids were excited that Grandma and Grandpa came to help cheer them on for their first game. Here is a cute picture of Kellen and Grandpa walking together.

It's the end of the game and Lorelai is exhausted! All that running around chasing after a ball can tired a kid out.
