2 Wheels

With her new bike
Abigail needed training wheels again for a few months.  
But as she has been zooming by (so fast her training wheels were rattling) we knew it was time to take them off!

After a couple tries with Daddy, she was off on her own again.

Curry and Chutney



Daddy's birthday breakfast 
(Corban's 1/2 birthday, so he got half a plate and half a bagel!)




cupcakes and singing 





Then we went out on a date (our first time to leave Asher with a babysitter!)









I surprised Chris with a cooking class 
(at our Publix Aprons Cooking School)!   It was a private class with just the two of us (and 3 chef instructors).  
The class was called "Chaat Room" and we made a delicious Indian feast!  

 This was such a fun experience! 
We had a great time chopping, cooking, preparing and enjoying this meal together! 
(and no dishes to wash after!)

Two Months

spring semester

We started our school year in July, which allowed us to begin all of our at home materials about 6 weeks before organized classes/activities for the year began.  
This allowed me to have a slower pace as we moved and then take the month of November (with Asher's birth!) off from all home curriculums 
(Corban and Abigail did still continue their other classes during that time).
While their activities are on a winter break, we have gotten back to our full schedule 
with their home curriculums.
Corban and Abigail have both done an excellent job!

Abigail completed her Rhyming, Lollipop Logic, and Addition workbooks.  
She also finished the BOB series and her first Pathway reader.
She will begin the My Fathers World 1st grade curriculum 
(Bible and Reading) in January.
Abigail will also move up to the next level ballet class (Ballet I) in January!

Corban has completed a Pathway reader and workbook,  Book 1 Horizons Math 2nd grade, 
and Explode the Code Books 4 1/2 and 5.
Corban will begin his next Pathway reader with workbook, Book 2 Horizons Math, 
and Explode the Code 6 in January.  
He will continue the MFW Exploring Countries and Cultures curriculum 
and A Reason for Handwriting B.

Corban and Abigail will both continue First Language Lessons, 
Classical Conversations and SAINTS.
