School Days!

Tyler started school, Crossroads Christian Academy, on September 3. We both love waking up each morning having breakfast together and getting ready for school. (In case some of you aren't aware, we are homeschooling this year.) We named our school Crossroads for Tyler's love of trains. We picked the yellow railraod crossing sign as our logo. Tyler even acts like someone is dropping him off at school. He peeks in our school room and grins running into my arms saying, "Good morning Mrs. Friday!"

We have circle time, which we pray, sing songs and begin reading our weekly bible story. We have lots of educational lessons and activities then break for other activities such as Play Espanol on Mondays, PE at one the Jax Parks on Tuesdays, Library on Wednesdays, Zoo classes at the Jax Zoo on Thursday, and Field trips with a homeschool group on Fridays. We have so much fun together. It is truely a blessing to be at home with Tyler and to have the priviledge to teach him God's word.

I hope you enjoy the pictures. The pool party was a "Welcome Back" party for our Unfailing Homeschooler's group. The children had so much fun meeting one another and also playing. I have also included pictures of our school room and our visits to Zoo class. Tyler has gotten to pet snakes, chinchillas, bearded dragons, alligators (small, of course) and many more animals. After each class we do Tyler's favorite attraction at the zoo- ride the train. Choo-Choo!

Tyler's First Soccer Game!!!

Tyler's first soccer game was on September 8. Since Brian is the coach, we are were up, ready and pumped up! Go hawkeyes! Tyler really had a great time. This sport is so good for him because he stays active the entire time. He kept running with the rest. Each time he kicked the ball, he ran off the feild and said, "Momma, I did it!" We are so proud. We have a lot more games to come. Here are some of the pictures from the first game.
