1) Can you believe that the girls wanted to jump in leaves so bad that they went around the neighborhood collecting leaves (barely getting a 1/2 a garbage bag for the whole neighborhood) and then dumped them in the backyard to play in? They are so silly, and yet so creative!! (Also pictured neighbor friend- Devyn)
2 & 3) Karina and Aurora looking cute!
The girls had their first undefeated soccer season ever! How exciting! So we all bought them trophies! This is their soccer party. Fun!
3) Does something about this picture seem a little backward to you?? LOL! (We love dog sitting for Prince or Sally. They are both such good dogs.)
These pictures are from Karina and Uncle Tommy's birthday, which happen to be a day apart. Cousin Laurel (and family) were really excited to give Karina a jewelry box for her birthday. It was so adorable and Karina loved it, of course!! There is also a picture of Karina with her birthday breakfast (her choice), a picture of my brother, Tommy, with his cake, and a picture of my brother, Joe, with Aurora.
Here are some pictures from our new school. We are having a wonderful time and find it to be the absolutely perfect combination between public school and homeschool. 1) Tia and her Kindergarten class 2) Tia and Sariah in their Puppet class 3) In this class, Riana and classmates built a community together 4) Sariah and Tierra in Adventures of the Sea 4) Riana's family from her Community class 5) Sariah and buddy, Kylie 6) Tierra and buddy, Hailey 7) Karina and buddy, Abbey (I am sad that I didn't get a picture of Riana with her buddy, Emily.) 8) Tia running during a game in Gym class 9) Riana and Sariah (and Karina) singing during their "Let's Sing" class performance. Their teacher is very nice to let Karina participate. Karina tells people she has Toddler Room class and Singing- so cute! 10) Riana and Sariah sang a duet, "Castle on a Cloud," during their class performance for their school classmates and parents. They did an excellent job!! (In addition to these classes, Riana also had Simply Beads, Animals in Clay, Under the Sea, and Twist Like a Pretzel. Sariah also had Cooking Art and Animals in Clay.)
Riana made Karina some jewelry, as a late birthday gift, in her Simply Beads class at school. Karina felt very special. The last picture is Karina as a "rockstar." She said, "Mommy, I am a rockstar in this outfit!" I am so in love with that girl-- what a cutie!

That was very fun reading all of your journaling and seeing the cool pictures. That is hilarious that they collected leaves to play in. That school sounds very neat. What a great compromise for your family. That's so cute that Riana made jewelry for Karina's birthday. That is also cool that you dog sit, that way your kids can see what it's like to have a dog, sort of--but you can send them back! :)
I miss all the action at the Drees' house! Sounds like you guys are having a great time! School looks awesome. I am glad it is going so well. We are still plugging away with COVA, but not sure if it is in the cards for next year. Have a great week!
Love that they collected all those leaves just to play in them. Silly girls!
