Home School???

School is going kind of rough for Jayden, today they made the kids run a mile in PE. Then in volleyball practice some of the girls were dishonest in their telling how many serves made it over the night so the coach is going to make them run on Monday for the entire practice.  And to top it off, Jayden's good friend Cheyenne that she rides horses with and has gone to bible study with all summer, went her first week of school and know is going to be homeschooled. Go Figure!. Jayden talks about home schooling all the time and begs. It is peer pressure, but at least it is good peer pressure. She knows that home school  is an option and is really pushing for it. It is something that has been weighing on me for some time. It is something I am praying about and seeking information. I really have to think it through and plan and it will take me the school year to do that. Right now I am just getting information and looking at options. I don’t want to tell the kids we are until I know for sure. So far Jacob is liking school. Home school is a big decision and one that I have not been a fan of in the past. Mark is for home school and I just want to do what is best for our kids. I know it will be a big change and it will require a lot from me.
 Jayden has a teacher with Garfield posters all over her classroom. This is jayden's drawing she did just by looking at one of the posters. I think she is going to take after her mom and great Uncle Dean Laugerman's cartoon art talent.

Volleyball

Jake  went with Karen after school and to the field. My mom, Luke and I went to Jayden’s  Volleyball game in Coon Rapids.  They played 4 games all losses. They were not having a good serving night and that really hurt them.  Still enjoy watching them learn.

Treasures

 In the morning we took 3 of our 4 cats to the vet for shots. The 4 th cat decided to wander this morning missing his appointment. On our way out, we passed a rummage sale and stopped. We got some major treasures for next to nothing. The church ladies were so fascinated with Jacob's interest in old radios and televisions. They just adored him and marked the prices way down and gave him some for free. We loaded up on kids books, got some board games, and a few other treasures. Jake ended up with a mini  television , an old radio and Polaroid camera. After lunch the boys went straight to the field. My friend Carolyn and her daughter Tabby came to ride horses. What started out to be a chilly day 45, turned out nice and sunny. We had coats on, but it was a great day to ride. We rode through our hay patch and along the waterway near the highway. It was a great way to spend the afternoon.

Dayton Fun Show

 It has been cold and windy for the past week, highs of 45. Today the sun was shinning and it got up to 60. There was one final horse show for the season at the Dayton arena. We took Jayden and Jacob while Luke went with Grammer and Po and was supposed to come later. It was a fun show geared for practice and the kids. Jake did really well on Winnie, he rode in walk and trot, barrels, and poles. He did some loping. Jayden did pleasure, milk can, barrels, poles, and a jumping event. Her horse Tex really jumps high for the jump event. Down in the arena, there was'nt any wind and the sun came out. It made for a nice day.
