Benson turns 9! He was extra lucky this birthday because last minute, we were invited by the Millers to go hang out on the river all day. They played hard all day swimming and jumping off rocks into the river. Then we came home and had banana cream pie for dessert! He also got to have a friend party this year. We had his friends come with us to Wahooz to play in the arcade for an hour or so, then we came home and watched the Minecraft movie. I think the thing he was most excited about was that he got a Nintendo switch! We love our Benson Boy!
First Day of School!!!! Obligatory pics in front of the door. Davy 1st grade, Benson 3rd grade, Lindy 6th grade, Gwen 9th grade, Miles 11th grade. First day of co-op! I can't wrap my head around how fast time is going
So many new learning opportunities! Grandma and Grandpa offered to teach history and science to a small group of families at their house- the youngers of the families usually went to the Mcbrides to so science more on their level. The younger 3 started a program called Mad Dog Math. Julie and Dan Kotoff are phenomenal at helping kids be excited about getting those math facts down pat! Gwen started a 2 day a week program at Stacey Lytle's. She runs a LA based program out of her home for homeschoolers, and Gwen fell head over heels in love with the whole thing. Super grateful for such a wonderful mentor in her life. Lindy and Benson started a Orchestra and Percussion group at a nearby place, so while they were doing their thing, Davy and I would do school in the gym. Miles was fully invested in his BYUI classes and spent most of the days in his room on his lap top!
No explanation needed September photos!
