This has been a very busy school year. A little too busy, if I do say so myself! In fact, I was about to throw in the towel about three weeks into the school year (thank goodness for great homeschool friends that I can lean on when I need to!).
Here's a glimpse into our busy schedule:
 |
| Enjoying the last days of Summer with a friend at the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden |
 |
| Playing along the Mississippi after Jr. Rangers (Mussel class and a boat tour) |
 |
| The girls started tap/ballet/jazz |
 |
| Celebrated Elise's 5th birthday at the American Girl Store |
 |
| Regular weekly study dates at Silverwood Park while Elise is at her Doodlebugs class |
 |
| Had our first Homeschool Mystery Day (the kids look scared because a major storm was blowing in) |
 |
| Millie found and took care of 4 sweet baby kitties. |
 |
| Took the bus to piano lessons a few times. Piano is going great! |
 |
| Lots of fun science experiments! |
 |
| Painting and fun at the MN Children's Museum |
 |
| Lots of weekend exploring in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Iowa |
 |
| 4-H kickoff, Elise's first one ever! They had a meeting, hay ride, bonfire, etc. |
 |
| Style Pile at the dance studio and Chinese food |
 |
| Eloise Butler Wildflower Sanctuary. Millie took a Poet-Tree class, Elise and I explored |
 |
| Nature study/craftiness |
 |
| Enjoying the last bits of Fall with a hike and picnic on Lake Superior |
 |
| Apple orchard with great friends |
 |
| Elise is making friends now, too! |
 |
| Team building with the homeschool group |
This is just some of what has been keeping us busy 3-5 days per week. Phew! I fully expect to slow down the week of Thanksgiving...
You guys know how to have a lot of fun!!
