Field Day with other homeschoolers

Field day went great! My oldest daughter is so competitive. She won the title of 1st place 3 times with two more awards that were 2nd and 3rd. One of those being the long jump. She jumped at a whopping 6'3"! She's my athletic one. My youngest daughter had fun even with finishing with just two awards of 3rd place. But she got a lot of laughs of the day and that's what she loves to do best! They had a blast and the day was great! It was hot and I got exhausted but was glad to meet some new friends!

I decided to do solar bracelets this time!

Plus, with my girls being so much more independent I've been working more with my photography business. My oldest also has her first job and we just stay super busy. However, in looking back where I was a year and a half ago to today I started to think about our journey and where it's gotten us. In previous posts, you will have seen where we stopped doing school completely. My kids didn't stop learning, but the textbooks stopped. We gained SO much from that 7 months that are beyond all textbooks. You can read on our previous journey on the links below. We Quit School Child Led Learning in JUST the First Week What If We Trust? There's Value in Being Relaxed Today I decided that I wanted to talk about more than what this journey did with our s
