We’ve had a busy day.
We hit up the children’s museum today with some of our homeschooling friends. That blur would be Maxine.
Dancing Machines!
Maxine hearts unicorns. Mommy hearts gingerbread men cookies. No one would take a picture of me hugging that guy up there though, especially with the security guard standing under me threatening to escort us out if I didn’t get down off the wall.
Working hard on a tracing project.
Crossing the Pond – without getting too close to the giant over there in the corner.
And just when I thought we hadn’t done enough today, Zak the Lego Maniac came home from work early and proposed we go swimming. Three votes yes, one vote no. My objection was overruled by hootin’ and hollern’ and emptyin’ of drawers to find bathing suits and towels and goggles.
Fine. Hoot. Hollar. Let me get my suit.
Since the pool we swim in is at a university, we stopped in a class room on our way out of dodge for a little lesson on letters and numbers by Teacher Ava. What’s with the nerdy tall guy sitting so close to the front? Doesn’t he know there are shorter people in back who can’t see over him?
Continuing with the college theme of the evening – what’s a group of three girls and a guy to do after a rocking pool party and then an evening class? Get PIZZA. That motion passed unanimously.
The grown up pizza had hot peppers, mushrooms, onions and pineapple. The other pizza was a lot less interesting but they were equally consumed.
In true college fashion we’re all up late and will surely be sleeping late tomorrow and skipping class. Good thing I’m the teacher. I rarely hand out tardy slips.
What a COOL day in SCHOOL!
Pizza party and all!
Max n Ava are sure getting a GREAT education!
Way to go MOM!
Can i come to your school! The picture of Zak and Maxine is precious! Pool parties and pizza are seriously the best combo. sort of like peanut butter and jelly. wait no, i think pg&j is better. o well! thehe! glad you lovlies had such a great day! xoox

I heart homeschooling mamas
Thanks for your comforting words. I’ve been away for sooo long! You’re a dotcom now! LOL about that big nerd up front. 😛 I want a huge unicorn in my room!
nom nom nom. Your pizzas look faboo.
those pizzas look delish…also, I really want to go to your children’s museum…looks like way more fun than the one in our city haha
I wish I had children’s museums that awesome growing up! Looks like you had fun! And I know all about university pools for swimming. Growing up, my brothers and I would always swim at the pool where my dad teaches. I wonder if I can still get access when I go home? Something to definitely look into! And that pizza looks delicious. Crust is my favorite part!
What a fun day. I usually am the one objecting to swimming as well. Your little girl looks perfect as a teacher!
hahaha, your writing always makes me smile and laugh. ummm, can i come to school too? that place looks like SO MUCH FUN! i wish i had something like that growing up. and yummmmm on the pizza. have a good day mama!
What a fun day! That children’s museum looks really nice. I took my kids to the one in Boston last summer and was petrified because there were too many people there and I get nervous about them wandering off!
