Black Island Farms - Syracuse

Mary loved to climb and slide over and over again.

Bobby thought he was cool being king of the hay stack, which was pretty high.

This slide looked fun until you got to the top. It is very steep and I was scared.
Bobby loved it and went down many times. I only did twice, first with my eyes closed.


Mary was so proud of her little pumpkin. Bobby wanted the biggest!


This is us on the hay ride. We all had a great time. We did the corn maze with a bunch of friends and spend a few hours playing. This was one of the Home school activities that we have done this month.

This is the view from the corn maze bridge. It was fun being out on the farm.

Soccer Bob!

Bobby is #7 - He is a great defensive player.


We were missing 2 players at this game, so they all played the whole game.
Bobby really enjoys playing soccer. He has told me a few times that he is playing for the rest of his life.

Fire Safety Week!!

The kids had a lot of fun at Fire Safety Week!! The Fire Department had some fun activities for the kids to do. Of course they had fun with their friends.

Working on my blog!

How do you like it? I have been messing around with it for awhile. I like it for now. Any suggestions??

On the Homeschooling front... It is going great. We have met a lot of great friends and have been having a lot of fun together. Bobby is doing so good, and what his grandpa Buhler said today, 'He seems to be getting his confidence back.' His studies are coming along.

Mary has been a handful. She is very, very demanding and mean sometimes. We are working on it. I just read a great book called 123 magic. It is working great with Bobby and works sometimes with Mary. I need to be more patient with her more.

Here are some recent pictures: (pictures will come when I get photobucket to work :(

Happy Birthday to Me!!!

Yesterday was my Birthday!!! I had a normal day, it was good. I ended up not working and spending time with my kids. Here are some pictures from last weekend at a RS retreat up in Park City. My friend and I went up to Alpine Slide and went down twice and down the coaster once. We had so much fun together.
