Hello blog followers!
Thank you for being patient while our family took a break from blogging this summer. Our older girls were busy with jobs and starting their own blogs (more on that later!) and I was nanny for a wee tot for one month. We have also been busy raising our ducks, which are now huge! It has been a great learning experience for all of us and I look forward to the day I can report that we have garnered our first duck egg! (Should be in a month or so…).
We also realized that we have not ONE, but TWO drakes, with the gold and silver bills, so we have had to readjust our expectations for egg-laying. Mr. Bubbles and Señor Gio had best keep their ladies happy and laying!
We also went on some family vacations, camping and to beaches. It is a real chance for this busy family to unwind and relax together, play games, go exploring, learn new things about each other.
As our girls get older, we want to continue to foster this feeling of togetherness as they strike out on their own.
Now that we are back to our homeschooling schedule, which has altered again from any other year prior, we may have more lesson and study time and various activities (fencing, archery, dance and horseback riding) that take us in different directions, but we still reserve Wednesday nights for Family Game Night and Sundays for Together Time, as well as three days weekly for Family Fun and Fitness during the lunch hour. 
So, our family welcomes you back to our blog and we look forward to sharing more learning adventures with you!
