Our homeschooling and home building story.
This week went better. The blue sky and clean air helps a ton and we're all better adjusted to our latest schedule. We were able to go to the park multiple times and I was able to teach my students outside every day. We released our butterflies except for one that has a bent wing... Continue Reading →
Had a new schedule again this week! No more zoom and online teaching. No more "tutoring" one group of kids and "teaching" a different group online. Now I get to be with the kids I'm teaching. That is really nice. However, the stress of 2020 has also piled up on me and I've cried this... Continue Reading →
This was a good week. We got into the swing of things and it felt like we'd adjusted to our schedule. Plus it was a box week which means lots of hands on activities. Our sibling box was on seahorses and was a blast. Ari's box was on Russia and she made a model of... Continue Reading →
It's been a good and fast week here. I am plenty busy and still adapting to all the things and it is good. The smoke left on Friday and I was soooo happy to see a clear blue sky again! Some haze returned on Sabbath but still not into unhealthy levels. I feel like almost... Continue Reading →
This week has been crazy. Started out with us in the Rogue Valley to avoid the smoke. I had a great birthday there with my family and got to see both of my siblings. We went to bear creek park and we had an epic water fight. Then we came home (which took twice as... Continue Reading →
Not a lot of pictures this week. We were very busy but the kids slept in better so attitudes were much better. I still have to figure out my sleep schedule. Ari has been enjoying her Imagination Station books a lot. Cas enjoys his school time with Ziggy. Overall we are having fun. I enjoyed... Continue Reading →

Driving off to the school at 1150 to be ready for in person tutoring from 1215 to 145. While I have in person tutoring, Ari and Cas get to be with daddy... Continue Reading →
This was my last week of getting ready before I'm teaching next Monday. It's been quite a week, thankfully my mother-in-law was willing to mask up and help with the kids twice which allowed me to get over 30 Chromebooks set up for students on one day and then hand them out and walk students...

We're home! And the day after we got home...both Caleb and I had meetings for work. We had meetings or online classes on...how to teach online classes...every day this week. Most of the time we could trade off who had the kids and who was in meetings but sometimes we both had to be busy... Continue Reading →
A week of memories going to camp during Covid season. We were split into color groups and could only interact with others in our color group, all our meals and activities were outside and we wore masks and face shields almost everywhere. It's also the first time I've received a branded mask. There were some... Continue Reading →
