Bryce and Aubree - The Bear Song

Bryce and Aubree practicing The Bear Song for Demonstration Night/Kick-Off Meeting for HEAR (Homeschool Group.)

July 4th

.

Bryce started his "My Life Matters" Camp on Monday. While Daddy worked outside, Aubree and I made cupcakes. We had a small cookout with family. We decided to opt out of fireworks. The kiddos had a sleepover with friends to end the evening. Great 4th with family and friends!!

Water Fun with Friends

A couple of friends organized this fun day for the kiddos.
Part of the course was to sit on a water balloon!!

Aubree had a tough time rolling the tire!!

Her turn to sit on the balloon!

It ended with everyone getting soaked including the adults unless you had the camera ;)

Summer Fun!!

Our Red Sox Player

Tonight Bryce ends his third year playing baseball. He's learned so much this year. His coach has been great - he's taught them baseball is more than a physical game. It requires thinking as well as listening to him. During Bryce's last game, his coach had him stealing to third base. The boys are to watch the coach and do as he says. They are not to be concerned about the ball. As Bryce started running from second to third, the coach kept telling him to run, go back, run, go back, run. It was crazy!! Bryce compared it to the part in the movie Polar Express when the train was swerving every which way on the ice. Afterwards, I asked Bryce if he had any idea why he was going back and forth and he said NO!! (The ball had been close to second then overthown, etc.) We will see what the final game tonight holds.

Happy 10th Birthday to Bryce

First Birthday!!

A Whole Hand Full!!

Today, he's Two Hands Full!!

Free Verse Poem:
The cat in the hat
is not fat,
wouldn't eat a rat
and in his thingamugiger he sat.

Limerick:
When the third base coach scratches his chest
Run, run, run. Try your best.
Then steal second base,
It is a quick race,
When you reach second base, YOU REST!

Cinquain:
Reading
adventure, fun
learn, relax, excitement
learning how I should live my life
cool words.
