October... My favorite time of year!











It's been great with the homeschooling. We are enjoying our time together and Rach is learning a lot. I am loving learning again about the US History and the subjects of plants and insects and things from her science class. Also, with Language Arts, I am re-learning how to write correctly as I think with texting and being super casual in email, I forget where my commas need to go sometimes! Rach is also in volleyball- the Dragons! And they have won some and lost some. It's been fun to watch Rach as she is doing fantastic!!

Gabi is enjoying our sandbox at our volleyball pit. She also has learned to petal her tricycle! I can't believe how fast she is growing. She is very complimentary and tells us she loves us all the time and kisses us on the arm or leg or cheek- whatever she can get ahold of.
Jake is pulling himself up on everything, climbs up the first two stairs, (so we have to block them!) and eats many things. He loves electronics as he loves to chew on the phone and wii remote! He says Dada and Mama, but he only says mama when he is crying for me to get him. :)
Kev has adventured in solar sales. He has been training the past couple of weeks and this Saturday he gets his very own appointment. We can't wait! He is enjoying learning about the solar industry and what it is all about. There are so many avenues; so it is neat as this has opened a whole new world for him!
I have been enjoying learning about cake decorating! I am looking forward to my next classes so that I can make some really fun things.
I am also busy planning Rach's 10th birthday party and looking forward to my parent's visit here. We are looking forward to showing them the area and a day in the life of us!
The weather has been perfect here! I can't believe it. I love being outside and feeling the cool gentle breeze.
And I'm also getting all of our passports together for us to take a trip to the Eastern Caribbean over New Year's! This is with APX like our Cancun trip. It's perfect because SolarTek shuts down for the holidays and so Kev can take off and it won't affect anything!
Time to go outside and enjoy the weather...
