New month, new school year! This year I gave the kids the option to “chose” their school year… We get asked this question A LOT through the years and the kids never really know how to answer it. We don’t align to a specific grade and in Trinity’s case, I didn’t register her OFFICIALLY until she was 7 but she has been schooling much longer. (this saves us on testing until it is required by state law) I gave Echo Kindergarten and Trinity chose Grade 3. The boys, they got creative.
Emanuel went with Grade Dinosaur. Gavin decided on Grade Minecraft. Zander went all out with Grade Mom is the Best Teacher. (mild suck up action there).
I even wrote my own “grade” level.
Poor Echo continued to get eaten alive by the mosquitoes.
I went all out and tried blue hair… it faded a bit too quickly for my tastes but was fun for the short time it lasted.
September was also the month of our Uncle Ted and Uncle Sean visit. Ted was here 1 week and Sean 2. It was amazing to have 3 of my boys together for the span of time. So much fun.
We also did Renaissance Festival with the boys and Shandai and Ravyn (no kids of course). Costumes for those who wanted etc etc. I will post the many many images and share the fun in a future post.
We ate out at our favourite Indian place.
Sean took Ken and myself out for a super fancy dinner as well!
I snuck in my craft time whenever possible.
I think we all had fun walking outside to the park.
There was a robot kit to make with the uncles.
And Sean even taught Echo how to play WoW (World of Warcraft) which I hadn’t seen in AGES.
And the most unusual students.
As well as some amazing sunsets.
New school year, new start! We made the most of it with lots of fun, workbooks and working together. Keep an eye peeled for an overflow blog post. There are just too many pictures to share!
