Benson turns 6! He requested a chocolate and strawberry cake where candy spills out of it. :) We went swimming at the rec center, Gwen made him an awesome sign, and we invited Bonnie and Trudy over to share dinner with us. We sure love our Benson Boy!!
We started a new homeschool co-op! With our friends the Fogles out in West Virginia now, we needed a new homeschool group of some sort. We have never done a typical co-op; it's always been a few families we've grouped together and made something work, so this was a new experience for all of us. I was nervous, but it turned out to be such a great experience for all of us. I got to teach art history to Gwen's class.
Grandma and Grandpa Garner came up to bring us produce and help us put up a bunch of it.
For one of our one-on-one dates with the kids, I got tickets for Miles and I to go see Brian Regan in Boise. We love Brian Regan and Miles especially loves comedians. It was so fun to be with just him and laugh so hard together! He's such a good kid.
Miles had his first season of Middle School Football. He had a great experience and learned a lot, even if his playing time was limited. He made lots of good friends and gained experience. He had a really lively cheering squad.
For Gwen's date, I took her to a BSU volleyball game. I'm not sure how entertaining it was to her, but it sure was fun for me to watch and extra fun to share something I love so much with her!
Mom, Jenn, Adrienne and I were able to go on an awesome trip to Canada, (another post) and while I was gone, Grandma and Grandpa Garner came up to help Dad. The highlights were going to the Farmstead and painting the girl's room!
Homeschool Mentionables: An actual PE class at co-op, park playdates, kiwi crates, science projects, and a field trip to the Birds of Prey Center in Boise.
Homesteading Menionables: Naked boys in mud, More preserving, yummy bread, Peaches and cream=heaven, new rabbits, beautiful sunsets, and "visioning" or walking around the property with Dad and dreaming of what we want to do with it.
