too cute!

This morning I had set the kids clothes out for church, and Zach very obediently dressed himself!

castle and gold mine field trip

Just wanted to share a few pictures from a recent field trip. The boys had a blast panning for gems, but it was otherwise a real disappointment. I think the field trips are still an important part of homeschooling, and it helps the kids feel like a part of a group, as well. Plus, it's good to mix things up a bit...

hello from the kids

After expressing a desire to play the electric guitar, "like Daddy," Jon purchased one from someone at church for Mychael. He seems to be a natural at piano, but says that's not his instrument of choice. I imagine he'll be a natural at guitar, as well! Plus, he's got a great teacher...

Zach and Nathan playing during Mychael's school time...

Jordan's always ready for the camera!
