At a gardening center this past week, I was talking to someone about all we have been doing in our square foot gardens. She asked me if we home schooled. I was confused about how to answer. Well, yes, we do. We also send them to school. Still not sure how to answer that seemingly simple question. ;)

Last night, I asked Evan to cut some strawberries up for our dessert. He came into the kitchen and asked whether instead of just strawberries, could he make a fruit salad? Sure. Also, he asked, could  he use the blender to blend up some strawberries to make a sauce? Sure! We thought the finished product was delicious as well as beautiful. Nice job, Evan!

Evan’s Aunt Katie got him a very cool gardening kit for this past Christmas. Evan recently got into it and  has the window in Ben’s and my room covered with containers full of sprouting seeds. We love spring! :)

Jump Rope for Heart 2010

Evan and Grayson’s school had a program this past week called Jump Rope for Heart. This is a fund raiser for the American Heart Association. Both boys have been so excited about raising money for such a worthy cause. Their grandfather, my dad, has had heart trouble, as well as our friend, Bill. I think knowing these people made this a very special cause for both boys. They also learned that the AHA  helped the family of a friend whose younger brother was born with a heart defect. I’m very pleased that they wanted to participate in this fundraiser and that their school made it a fun time for them. I was able to participate on the day each boy’s grade had their turn, which was really special. These kids were excited!

Where’s Grayson?

This morning, I couldn’t hear the boys anywhere. Evan had already emptied the dishwasher and had some time to spare, but where was Grayson? I went looking through the house and found him beside a huge pile of books we checked out yesterday from the library and this is what I saw.

Wow! What a week we have had! Ben’s Uncle Pete and Aunt Jeri had a second week at a time share that they weren’t going to need and they offered it to us!! Too exciting. So, we took the boys out of school for a week and spent that week at Atlantic Beach instead. We swam in a heated pool every day, went to the aquarium several times and spent lots and lots of time out on the beach, shelling.
