Weekly Wrap-up: Week 33 - The Final Week

And it's a wrap! 

Our 11th year of homeschooling is finished! Portfolio reviews are scheduled for tomorrow morning. It was a year ups-and-downs, but ALWAYS a learning experience. Now, onto planning and preparing for next year...and enjoying summer!

Not all my goals were accomplished this year, but I always am quite ambitious with them. Better to have challenging goals than ones easily attained, right? 

In the meantime, we're making memories! 

Sam decided to rig up the hose (using the mower) and cool off one afternoon. He's a "ham"!


We loaded up the kids and picnic food, and headed to a friend's house to camp in her AWESOME travel trailer. The kids kayaked and caught frogs. There were yummy S'mores, cooked over a fire near the pond. And 4 tired kids (and parents) at the end of the day.


We drove into the city and attended a AA baseball game. Our Portland Seadogs lost 2-3, but we had a great time, going home with 2 game balls (that players threw up to the kids).


We weeded and watched the garden grow.


And enjoyed seeing a few flowers bloom.
