Curriculum
So I found myself overwhelmed with how much is available to homeschoolers! I love all the ideas and awesome stuff that people are using so I was looking for the right thing that would work for my kids and let's face it for me since I was going to be the one teaching it!
So after much and trial and error... I have come up with our curriculum for the year!! Haha I know it's October and I just figured it out...and yes your right it is October and I just literally have figured out what works!
So here goes it:
My Sweet pea (kinder)
Phonics ( Abeka)
Math (Abeka)
Handwriting ( Abeka)
Draw-Write-Now
Nature Study
Artist and Music study
Sonlight books!
My Little Man: (pre-school)
Letters (abeka)
Numbers (abeka)
Workboxes for both of them!

Awanas
This is the kids first year at Awanas and I am proud!! They are doing so
good
they have already memorized five bible verses and their theme song and
motto!
When I first signed them I thought "Oh nooo what did I just sign
myself up for"
but it has been sooo easy!! Evan who I thought for sure there
is no way we are
memorizing these and let me tell you it comes so wuickly to
him!! I love it and
I recommend it. There are over 400 kids and I thought
this might be overwhelming
to my kids but they have really enjoyed it! This year is turning out to be so exciting for our family! New things to try and experience and the best part is we can do it together! Have a blessed day!

Hang-on
Well my little sweet pea keeps impressing me more and more!! She is
stepping out of her comfort zone more and more as of late and it is sooo fun
to
watch!
She got on this rope and hung on and giggled loudly
the whole time it was
hilarious~!!! She was sooo nervous but had so much
fun!! I am so proud of
her!
