First Week Success!

I would say that our first week of school was a success! We worked our scheduling issues out, so now we are all good!
Trey says that his favorite classes are Language (what?) and Science, but he also likes Arithmetic! Who is this kid?! I am so pleased that he enjoys learning now. There is no competition with anyone (except himself) which only makes him a stronger student 😊, which makes me a happy Mama..it's a win/win!!
Makena really likes Spanish. Carlie hated it. Makena has been speaking some Spanish since she was 2 or 3. I would teach her little songs, and how to count to 10...and she loved Dora and Diego!!
Carlie and Makena don't agree on a lot, but the do agree that Geometry sucks! I've told them that it is too early to be forming such strong opinions about a subject!! Hopefully it will grow on them.
Carlie likes Physics (thank you Lord) and World History.
Here are some pictures from our first week:
Can somebody please tell me when he grew up?! We were on break and he wanted me to come out to his tree house to show me some new stuff he put up there. 

Carlie was really concentrating

For some reason it seems to work out that every Thursday evening we go to the river! This week was no different. Makena and Trey decided to tube this time but Carlie still wouldn't!







Noah and Carlie planned a party on Friday for surviving our first week!
We had a pizza pool party!
All six cousins

Nanny, Trey, and Makena Faith

Eli and Carlie were having a pizza eating contest! I think he beat her by one piece (technically, he doesn't eat all of the pizza but in his mind HE won). He ate 6 and she at 5!

The boys playing with Makena. They love it when she plays basketball with them. Usually they all want to be on her team.

I thought this was a pretty cool picture of Pop in the background

Happy Schooling!!

Back To School Photo Shoot: The Girls

Three Doses of Happiness

Laundry piled up, dishes in the sink, phone buzzing with many emails, toys all over the house.......sounds like an absolute perfect time to go outside and relax with my kiddos! Today has been a VERY warm day.  It probably would be more enjoyable if we didn't know that it would more than likely storm tonight!  Carlie didn't go to school today because she was up a lot last night with stomach issues.  She never vomited, but she was very nauseated and has had stomach cramps.  She hasn't felt bad all day, just off and one.  We might be going to the doctor tomorrow p.m. because Sunday night I noticed that she has a little bulge above her belly button, I wasn't concerned about it (really) until her stomach started hurting and she said that it hurt to tough.  Maybe it's nothing, but people keep mentioning hernia to me.  Please pray that she feels better soon.  Also tomorrow is the big day....academic advising.  I remember the very first time I was advised (somewhere a
