Finally!

A. had been wanting to build a Geodesic Dome with old newspapers for about a month now! We constructed the parts as we received more newspapers. So, FINALLY, tonight we assembled it and were very pleased by the outcome.

Fall Days, School Days

The beautiful fall weather provides a great reason to take our "classroom" outside!

Fine Art?

A.'s art class had to take two lines and create a portrait.
If you look closely, you can see an example in Spongebob's Art Museum!
E. created LEGO sculptures for his wing of the museum!

Futbol!

GAME ON!!

Today, S. and I are opponents...well sort of!

With a closer look, I am wearing my Texas Tech cap and S. is proudly wearing his Husker cap. This morning we boldly wore them to the E.'s soccer game (we are in Longhorn and Aggie country here) when we realized, hey they play each other today!

In about an hour my alma mater (Texas Tech) with take on the my brothers' alma mater (the University of Nebraska). They will be watching from two different parts of the good 'ole Cornhusker state, as I will be watching from just about the most southern part of Texas possible! What fun! Go TECH!

Oh, did I mention I was born in the Big O, so TECHnically, I cannot lose today!

What's Happenin'?

We were blessed beyond measure by our dear friends who visited this last week! We shared many laughs and made more great memories! We are thankful for their friendship and we look forward to more crazy times in the future!!!

A Fall Full of Fun!

This fall has provided a big change for us! We have three of our four young 'uns participating in extra-curricular activities! That is pretty significant considering we went from zero to three! HA!

One of the best gymnastic and dance centers here has offered a homeschoolers gymnastics class. So, the girls have seized the opportunity! They are having a blast...so am I! It sure is fun watching them run around and flip here and there!

Another new adventure, E. has joined a local youth soccer club. He has really been a trooper since practice has been in 95+ degrees. His first game on Saturday was a win (we will be thankful even if it was because the other team was a no-show ;-) )!

S. decided he just wanted to support his siblings for the time being! He is a great booster!! ;-)
