Actually, I could title that One and a half down, One hundred seventy-eight and a half to go because as I’m writing this post we’re halfway into Day 2 of the 2012-2013 School Year. Or the “Honeymoon Phase” as I like to call it. They’re both having a good time right now and kind of...
This precious girl is so special to us! We first got to know her family when Collin photographed her parents’ wedding. The entire family was so much fun to work with and we anxiously waited to see if we would get the opportunity to photograph another Patterson wedding when one of the other sisters got...
We LOVE Pinterest. There are CRAZY cool ideas out there for anything and everything, am I right? So when Kelly showed me the inspiration photo she found for Avery’s two year session I was SO Excited! It was perfect for this sweet girl who is head over heals for anything princess. And then she threw...
Wow. Y’all, I just can’t seem to get caught up enough to update the blog this week. Since Collin has a day full of meetings and projections in the studio, I’m hoping to maybe get a few posts up here. I hope?? Anyway, I hope you all had a FABULOUS 4th! We had an evening...
Sheesh! You’d think now that I was back from vacation I could update the blog a little. Sorry guys, this week has been NUTS. I now understand why my mom would always say that she needed a week of vacation to recover from vacation. I feel like every time I get the house somewhat straight...
Congrats on another year! My, now 23 and 25 year old, home schooled kids are still great friends. Even though Melody is married and Josh is engaged, they remain bonded in a special way. I contribute that to 12 years of home education 🙂
Josh had the amazing opportunity to study last semester, as an honors exchange student, in Caen, France. When he listed the top 10 things he missed most about the states, missing his Sister was number 2…..(number 1 was the internet)…I thought that was really sweet! (And of course, his now fiancé was WITH him, studying in Caen, or I am sure she would have knocked Mel to the #3 spot! 🙂
Keep pressing on! Many blessings for an excellent school year!
LOVElovelove it! I NEED CB’s red desk. I have quite the collection of desks going thanks to my antique obsession of late, but none of them are quite right. Thankfully, we’re going to an antique show/open air market this weekend that specializes in mid-century modern pieces. :D:D:D Hoping to snag something awesome. I love the clock idea and the giant maps.
We have a room of sorts going in the basement that I know we will never use. The dining room table just seems to work. :/
My plan was to start June 1(then pushed back to July 1) but that hasn’t happened. I’m aiming for September 1 at this point!
I look forward to many more posts about successful homeschooling. 🙂
Love hearing you describe their relationship and how they interact! (and I love that you are organized enough to start school now!) Still a bit jealous that I dont have the patience to not but heads with N enough to homeschool 🙂 You, my friend, amaze me in so many ways!!
Thank you for the words of encouragement, Scarlett! What you wrote about is my biggest wish for them!
Chrissy, I am LOVING antique desks right now, too. I could fill the school room with them! I also wish I had a place for one of those old school roll-up school maps. I found one but unfortunately it’s too big to hang on any of my walls. =( I hope you find great stuff this weekend! Also, I’m really wanting to do a MD camping trip. How close are y’all to DC?
Michelle, there is more head-butting in this house than you could ever imagine. I promise it’s not nearly as hard as you think it is! Well, some days are, but that’s just part of parenting, right? 😉 You would be AMAZING at this!!!
