Editing
One thing I love about a camera phone.....easy editing! Some fun shots from the beach yesterday. 'Regular' pictures of the El Galeon Andalucia and the beach to come later.

Sails and Skates
This year I really feel like a 'homeschool mom'. We are three weeks into our curriculum and have official science, history, language, etc. work. Its lots of fun to see Rebecca learning and enjoying herself. Last week as a reward for a week well done we went to homeschool roller skating. So many memories, not of this rink, of course, but I can remember lots of skating on Fridays. Levi wanted to give it a try this time too. I can't believe we're at this stage of parenting.....past the baby days and into projects and field trips!
STEM work one morning while mama fought a migraine.
Foil models of the Nina, Pinta and Santa Maria...a little experiment in wind driven sailing ships.
The boys really liked this project!
Rebecca has outgrown the skatemate helper, but Levi is ready to start learning!
Very proud of himself.....if I had fallen as often as him I'd have been in the ER....thank goodness for flexible bones.
Never to be left out, Isaiah jumps in no matter the project.

Eight? Eight! How is this possible?!
Rebecca has been looking forward to 'her day' for weeks and the plans kept getting more elaborate. She chose the whole day's menu, cupcake and ice cream flavors, punch, and even had some friends over to play this afternoon. She patiently waited for Aaron to get home, but she was oh so ready to tear open her gifts! Now we're heading to a meeting to see if she wants to join American Heritage Girls. Whew! This mama has fun making special days for her children, but they wear her out! ;)
Our girl is really looking grown up!
Off topic- but this dog is NOT yorkie/dauchshund. I see the doxie in her, but she has no petite traits of a yorkie!
Our cupcake creations!
