Monkey (left) and Bug (right) play defense
with their friend A as goalie.
Go Orange!
Monkey and Bug love playing soccer! Monkey had been hesitant to sign up, but even she admitted she was having a lot more fun than she expected. In addition to the official practices,  they've been getting in extra tips, tricks, and drills with Daddy. The rest of the players are improving too (they're not the only first-timers on the team), and their team actually tied their last game! Very exciting since they lost the last couple by a landslide. (The league doesn't officially keep score, but kids always know who won. Can't fool them!)

Perks of Homeschooling
This, ladies and gentlemen, is what history class sometimes looks like at our house! We're reading through Story of the World, and for every chapter the girls each fill out an over-sized notecard with notes on the lined side and a drawing on the blank side. This week they were assigned to put them in order and tell me the story. You can't really see their fun drawings here, but it was a great review activity!

Mmmm....Cookies!
Since Lion had stitches in her knee, we couldn't plan any of our usual adventures for a couple weeks. However, everyone agreed that meeting up with friends to make, decorate, and eat Halloween-themed sugar cookies was a great substitute!
