Fun History Class

Our homeschool group hosted a history class covering 5,000 years in three hours!  The boys received an incredible coloring book (to call it a coloring book does not do it justice).  It has made for some excellent discussions at home…

‘R’ Turns 10!

It’s going by too fast!  AAARRGGGHHH!!  I can’t handle this!

He had celebrated an early birthday with friend by going to see The Lego Movie earlier in the month.  Since we weren’t sure it would still be in the theaters, he wanted to celebrate early.  For the actually day…’R’ celebrated with a custom order breakfast of peppered salami, peppered bacon, Doritos, cheese and crackers, and grapes.

I love you, buddy.  Stop growing.

A beautiful day to dedicate a beautiful baby to the Lord!

Dinner with Friends

John and Ann are good friends, (John was our pastor in Washington).  He is currently serving as an interim pastor a few hours from us, and joined us for an evening.  It was such a blessing to spend time with them.  This picture was taken when we went out for some yummy BBQ at Lucille’s

Arroz con Pollo

When we visited Puerto Rico, David ordered the dish, Arroz con Pollo (Rice with Chicken).  He enjoyed it so much,  he ordered it at each restaurant we went to.  For his birthday this year, I decided to make it for him.

I used this recipe, but altered it to accommodate the ingredients I could find…

Kovar’s Field Trip

Our homeschool group held a field trip at one of the local martial arts places.  The boys had a great time learning a few new things, and having fun with their friends…

We have had a little bit of rain lately.  Definitely a blessing due to the drought we’ve been under.

When it rains, the golf course tends to flood, creating huge puddles (or mini-lakes).  The boys had some friends over and asked if they could play on the course.  I figured it would not hurt, sine there was no one golfing…

My friend, Marisa, and I, took our kids to a lecture at the nearby Christian college, William Jessup University.  They did a terrific job listening, although it was a bit over their heads.  How do I know that?  Because it was a bit over mine!  After the talk, Marisa and I decided we had all earned ice cream….
