As I mentioned in my last post, I had several photos of Lauren that I wanted to share, but they would have exceeded my self-imposed fifteen photo limit. I thought I’d fit in with “Throwback Thursday” and share some of them today…along with a few others I came across. 🙂 I was so excited …
Our homeschool group offered spring soccer for eight weeks, beginning the first week of April. Yes, I’m just now, nine weeks later, sharing photos. Why? Because I snapped over 300 photos and for some reason, the folks around here want clean clothes and food, so I put off editing photos. Even today, I found myself …
Today, my son took the final test of the year. We have officially ended our school year! I have averaged the grades and everyone passed! And no, I don’t pass my kids even when they aren’t learning. But then, they always learn. I’ve noticed that as a homeschooling mom, I am able to quickly see …
It’s hard to believe that we have been in Oklahoma for one year! I’m finally adjusting to life in the Sooner state. It’s not like I’m the pioneer woman or anything. I live in the city and that’s a good thing! (I wouldn’t know how to grow herbs, ride a horse or cook a tasty …
These photos are for my mom…and any other friends and family who would like to see them! 😀 My mom had specifically asked if I would show her the kids’ Easter outfits, so here they are! I also took a few closeups. I’d prefer to take photos outdoors in natural light, but due to …
I’m always looking for ways to make memories with my children. While we do not host elaborate Easter egg or candy hunts to attract crowds to our church (because, isn’t the Gospel of Christ enough?), we do enjoy spending time as a family. I try to use the Resurrection Eggs with my kids each year, …
Our first “Oklahoma” thing to do was tour the Braum’s factory in Tuttle, Oklahoma. Braum’s is a restaurant famous for its delicious ice cream. Their food comes fresh to each store, which is why the majority of stores are in Oklahoma. They have to be within a 300 mile radius of the farm and factory …
Last week, my girls had to say goodbye to a friend who is moving with her family to a new Army post. It was a sad night. Because we were a little sad, and because we all lost an hour of sleep last weekend, Â we decided that our little homeschool would begin our spring break …
I’m *finally* getting up a few photos of our first Christmas in Oklahoma. It was a bit of an adjustment this year, trying to figure out where to put the tree and decorations and how to arrange things so our family from afar could be comfortable. I think everything came together just fine. It was …
