• First Day of School

  We started with some light schooling at the end of August, but didn't officially start school until September 7th.  We spent the prior two weeks learning our new routine, chores and getting a slower start on the school year.  We've never done it this way before, but it worked out very well for us.  By the time we jumped into school with two feet, we were already set on chores and used to the routine, so it went very well.  Of course, being the first day of school, pictures had to be taken.

  After school we headed outside for some fresh air.  They all enjoyed a snack of apples; Samuel really enjoyed his.
