Oh my gosh! I can't believe that I haven't blogged since Mikayla's birthday! This has been a crazy month and I can't believe that it is almost over with. Time is just slipping by faster and faster. Let's see what have we been up to.....well we finished up softball earlier this month (the 10th and 11th) with Briana's team taking 5th place in the tournaments! They did okay, we just wish they had placed better but it was not in the cards for them this year! We will see how next year plays out! My parents came for a visit the following week and left yesterday. The kids enjoyed having grandma and grandpa around and it gave me a break from them bugging me all day long! The kids were sad to see them go but I am sure they will be back again for a visit in the future! The 3 younger kids started swimming this week in Sioux Falls at Terrace Park, they have LOVED it! Especially Keara! She is my little fish! I think we need to get a gym membership so that she can keep swimming in the winter! They will finish swimming lessons next week! I am slowly getting things hammered away for schooling. CRAZY, how fast the summer goes. I will post some pics of our new "school" area! It just came to me the day that we were rearranging! We will see how it goes! The kids will "officially" start the school year on August 3rd! If we work it right, we are hoping to be done by April 30th. The kids know that they have to get all their work completed in order to be done by that date! If they don't, well we school until their curriculum is finished! I am looking forward to this adventure and I believe that the kids are also! Still a little concerned for Briana but since she will still be able to do volleyball and cheerleading, it will be worth it! She is also going to take voice lessons from a former homeschooler who has graduated from college! I hope that this will show Briana that homeschooling isn't all that bad! I think she likes the thought of working at her own pace. We will see how it goes! I just can't believe that it is here already! Oh my does time fly! So anyway....that is why I have been absent from blogging (besides the fact that I am addicted to Farmtown on Facebook). I hope to get back into the swing of things very soon! For now.....enjoy the pics!
