First two weeks of September 2020

We started Art Monday class with two of our friends that are also homeschooling. Jashira and her son Josh live in Bexley and I've taught him piano and we met walking our kids back and forth to school. Skyla comes to art and her and Will were in the same Kindergarten and 1st grade class. Its really great because my kids love art but I hate the mess so I put it off quite frequently and then they never get to do crafty things. But this way, I plan it ahead of time, we do it outside, and everyone's happy!

Molly's butterflies hatching!

Climbing trees.

When you're playing outside on your front porch and the neighbors join in so you end up with multiple kiddie pools all in a row--fun!

This outfit was mine. Awww.

Here we met up at the park with our friend Lindsey Harper and her four boys that are roughly the same ages as my oldest four. They are also homeschooling (there is definitely a trend here--because our time slots differ now from those who go to school and also because being outside past 11am is misery).

I think this was painting mandalas day.

We got some clothes from Ruthie's friend Huxley and this dress was just especially cute on Molly.

The kids and Josh.

eating dirt in a cup with worms for our last day of our bug science unit!

The library hasn't been able to hold their usual craft classes that my kids love--but they DO have little paper bags full of one craft per month and my kids have also been loving that.

Molly's butterflies before we set them free! (Don't be confused, there are butterflies as part of the fabric)

Painting--look at our cups! haha

And the pool opened! And no one even bothered to come (because, as I anticipated, everyone in our community is old and doesn't want to come to a place like the pool--which is why they should've opened it WAY earlier so the handful of people could use it. With a sign up sheet or something.) but it is open now and we love it!
