Kit Box School Day
Posted in Elizabeth, Homeschooling, Janie, Susanna, Tommy on Feb 23rd, 2017
Homeschooling has been rough the past couple of weeks. I’ve started physical therapy for my knee, but it’s Monday and Wednesday mornings (through the canyon, 45 minutes away), and despite leaving the kids with schoolwork at another homeschool family’s house, we’re obviously not getting as much done as if we were doing school all morning […]
Tommy’s Cuddle Up and Read Birthday Party with the Daughritys

For Tommy’s birthday, we were going to have a field trip to Santa Barbara, but due to torrential rain, we opted for a plan B: a cuddle up and read day at our house!

Janie’s favorite ride. Did it well over a dozen times.
Legoland Hotel

We’re halfway through our mini-vacation to Legoland. Since Inspire paid for five of our tickets, we splurged for the Legoland hotel, and boy, do the kids love it! Let’s just hope the park is as empty and the weather as good tomorrow!
