Easter 2011

 Our Family

Easter 2011

 Cousins

 Great Grandparents (that is not all of their grandchildren)

 This is my Mom's side of the family.  We are even missing some.

 Caden's gift from the Easter Bunny

 Caden made a sign on our front door for the Easter Bunny.  When Caden woke up the morning of Easter he found that the Easter Bunny had drew a picture of himself and signed his name.

 Caden knows how to swing himself!:)))

 Pretty Girl!

 Hannah loved pushing her cousin.

Raising Rock Stars Preschool Letter U and W

 Gluing pom-poms on verse.

 Tracing and cutting out U vocabulary.

 W book.  I had Caden highlight his sight word with self-stick markers.

 You Can Read color page.

 I am not doing You Can Read with Hannah, she saw Caden doing it and wanted to join in so I let her.

We are loving Raising Rock Stars.  Both kids really enjoy the curriculum.  Carisa at 1+1+1=1 has done a wonderful job creating these lessons.  We have done letters M-U but have not posted all of them.  We are just enjoying the lessons.  I have also started You Can Read with Caden.  We are going pretty slow with it though. 

For both kids I will complete Raising Rock Stars and I know I will do it again with Hannah.  Caden will be moving on soon.  I hope to get him started with a Kindergarten curriculum in the Fall or when he turns 5 in Dec.  He is ready.  I do not think Hannah will be ready as soon as Caden will but each child is very different.  I am going to continue You Can Read from 1+1+1=1 with Caden.  We are having such a wonderful time homeschooling.  It is so neat to see each child grow and learn, best of all we get to do it together.!

Easter Egg Hunts 2011

This year we did 2 Easter Egg Hunts.  One at my sisters work and the other with our Joy School Friends.  The one at my sister's work was CRAZY!  My son got pushed over by a parent.  Why were the parents hunting Easter Eggs????  Joy School Easter Egg Hunt was wonderful.  We hid the eggs and the kids had a great time finding them.

Fun Pictures

We still have been doing school but I just wanted to share some cute pictures instead.  

Our New House

 Well here is our new house.  (I guess I could have closed the garage lol)

 

 Here is the school room.  I have not painted it yet, but we love, love, love it.  In the old house the playroom and school room were in the same room.

 Another view of the school room.

Circle time area.

 This is the view of the playroom.

Here is another view.

We absolutely are so blessed to have a bigger home.  We have been enjoying every bit of it.  The kids love it too.  

 This is the awesome lake and view behind our house.

Aaron and the kids caught a big bass.  Aaron and the kids were so excited.

Raindrop Experiment

 I put flour in a paper plate and then we collected rain drops.

 Then the kids plucked them out with tweezers.

 Then they played in the flour.....

 This is what Caden looked like after!!!1

Then Hannah!!!
