Chewbacca

Since we had to say good bye to our Sandi dog we decided to keep one of her puppies to ease the suffering. He is so cute I can hardly stand it. Everyone is glad that we have him in our lives.




Mr G's Final Kub Kar Rally

 Mr.G did really well with 3rd place in his final Kub Kan Rally considering his car jump the track and went flying off into the crowd. His car was absolutely perfect in his eyes. He patterned it after a Demolition Derby car. He wanted to make it look authentic so we painted it and roughed it up with sand paper to give it that beat up look.

Puppy Love

February was a full of emotions as we had to say good-bye to our beloved Sandi. She was a very loving dog that had a place in all our hearts. To top things off, the news of her illness came the same day we were handing her puppies off to their new owners. On the bright side, we were able to retain Chewbacca because the new owners back out of the deal due to his minor hernia. Live is full of cloudy days, but if you're looking you will always find a silver lining.

Kun Kar Rally 2019

Mr. G won third place in his Kub Kan Rally with his 
"Demolition Durgy" car. I love this kids enthusiasm for life. He is always sporting a grin and looking for ways to serve others. If there is hard physical work to be done, he is the first one to jump in and volunteer to do the dirty work.


Building Towers

Science and Cubs sometimes go hand in hand and can be very exciting. Especially when marshmallows are involved. The challenge was for each group to build the tallest free standing tower.  Each group were given the following items:
1. Set time frame 
2. Set number of marshmallows
3. Set number of tooth picks and skewers
 Mr. G's group won the challenge and he was every pleased with how his knowledge about building structures came in handy. 







Tumbling

This year all the kids took a tumbling class to help them improve their core strength. Improving their core strength aided in the development of their other activities such as dance. It also helped us to keep fit throughout the winter months. Miss M was a student teacher for 2 tumbling classes and 3 ballet/tap classes. The freedom a home education has afforded my children is priceless. Absolutely enjoying life to the fullest each day is such an amazing reward of shooting at home. 

Each one of my kids were able to set and reach a goal in their respective classes. I love being able to see the smile on their face when they achieve goals they set for themselves.
