Ribbon Week (Oct 2011)

 

 

 

 

I just these sweet girls!!! Even at their worst, I love them unconditionally! I am so blessed to have them!! They are truly a gift from the Lord.

 

 

It was the last week of Oct, that we had Ribbon Week. Each Day had it’s own theme.

 

Monday was Red Day.. So she wore a red t shirt and a TX Ranger hairbow.

 

Day 2 – College Shirt Day!

 

Day 3 – Boots and Jeans Day

 

Day 4, was Dress like your Best Friend. So Lil E and Kinz were these shirts. (didn’t manage to get picture of both of them.)

 

Friday was Spirit Day. Black and Gold. We didn’t have a school shirt, but did a bow and necklace.

Pumpkin Patch Field Trip (Oct 2011) (Warning – Lots of Pics)

 

It was field trip day. And we were headed to the pumpkin patch. We had to take a sack lunch. I wanted to make sure her lunch went with the theme. So she had pumpkin shaped sandwich, Halloween cookies and chips, a drink and fruit.

 

 

First off it was hay ride out to the field to pick a pumpkin.

 

Each kid was able to pick their own pumpkin. And the girls did just that. After everyone had picked their pumpkins, we headed back on the hay ride to the main area. We sang songs along the ride too.

 

There was much to do. We had to stay with the class, and rotated from each thing to do. The kids all loved the yard pillow.

 

 

And instead of a sand box, there was HUGE corn box to play in.  It was so fun!

They have the Mine Slides.. And they had so much fun climbing the hill to slide down, over and over and over.

And they were riding on the bull train.

 

   

 

Plus they went through the obstacle course.

 

I have the cutest scare crows ever!

 

A pic of us 3, even though it wasn’t that great, neither girl was looking.

 

 

 

This is Texas Size Volley Ball!

And the peddle carts.

 

This was a pretty fun day. We love the pumpkin patch. But this the day, I really saw first hand, issues in the class, and realizing I wasn’t to sure about this public school. I know not all are bad, but I just am not sure this is right for us. And this is when I started really reconsidering our decision, no matter what the other state said. (Since we were trying to get the Baby, that state frowns greatly on homeschool, and it is near impossible for us to get the baby placed with us, if we homeschool.)

 

It was a nice day, but we would prefer to go as a family, and take our time through out the fun things, and not have to move as an entire class. 

 

*** Today Aug 2012… We can’t wait to visit the pumpkin patch this fall as a family.

 

Hugs and Blessings,

Sept – Oct (2011)

 

WOW!!!! I was even further behind than I thought… I am doing these catch up posts, to document our lives, and so they will be spread through out the current blogging. I guess better late than never, as the saying goes.

Labor Day weekend, is the time I always put out our fall decorations…. This year couldn’t be any different.

 

 

 

I can not believe my baby girl is attending school else where.. This is bitter sweet. If it works out to stay good, then it was ment to be, and if not God will lead us in what he wants us to do.

 

For Lil E’s Birthday we went out and Daddy spray painted a Birthday Message for Lil E. Click HERE to go to the post to see more of the pictures.

 

 

She wanted an outfit for her and her doll that matched, and she got that, instead of it going on her doll, it was put on her for kitty right away.

 

 

We were blessed with a visit from some of our dear friends. Since our last transfer, we don’t get to see them very much. So it is very special when we do. They adore the kiddos and the girls love them to pieces as well.

 

Not only had Lil E started school, she was also doing Cheer. She would have been on the same team even if we stayed homeschool, as we had registered as a homeschool student and they matched us with the closest school. She was having a GREAT time and loving it!

It was long weekends. We had practice twice a week and games on Saturday and Sunday both. WOW! But they did this to get the full season in earlier, because of the cool weather.

The girls were all dressed and ready for church and I just love these fall dresses. I know the time of dressing them matching is soon to be over. How I will miss thee, but it’s been fun too.

 

It sure was setting cooler by season end. (our last game)

 

We celebrated the end of the season at the pizza place with a party. It was fun and everyone had a GREAT time.

 

Sept was super busy, with Cheer and School, and was pretty much all we had time for.

 

Hugs and Blessings,
