I cannot believe we are just FIVE days away from Thanksgiving already!! Better late than never on this :)
Nerf gun wars in the backyard ...
Ambulance presentation @ CC ...
Random ...
Matthew's afternoon writing class @ CC... here he is officially becoming a "word discoverer" [hence the outfits]. Mrs. Hellmann is his teacher, and she's also a professor at the local community college. She came up with a fabulous idea of having the kids discover two new words each week to compile their vocabulary list. I can't even put into words how happy it makes my heart to see the sheer joy on his face in these pictures. In the last one she's giving Matthew "word power" ... as she does at the end of every class. The kids LOVE it.
An afternoon of painting ...
Fall festival @ church ...
CC class presentations ...
These are from my day serving in Eli's pre-school class @ CC ... all the moms rotate helping the teacher, Mr. Steve. Unfortunately, I've been known to complain about this time because it takes me out of class with the big boys. [so I'll miss their presentations or maybe a creative way to learn the memory work introduced by their tutors] But thankfully I've learned to look beyond myself. I really love this time with just Eli ... seeing what all he does on Mondays & being able to focus on my sweet little guy for a few hours.
A trip to the train store [aka: Barnes & Noble] as a treat after dentist appointments...
Halloween ...
These two on the playground @ CC :)
Here's Matthew earning Bible memory by reciting John 1:1-7 to his tutor, Mrs. Lindsey. Hudson also earned it, and is showing their reward.
