Despite my longing for summer to continue on forever (have I mentioned it was a good one), fall came anyway.  Now that it's here I remembered that I do really love fall as well.  It also felt good to get back into our rhythm of homeschooling.  Aside from starting our regular lessons, we also got together with our (silly) homeschool group, went on our first field trip (Vertical Endeavors), and both Grace and Jackson started some new classes (Soccer (just Jackson), Spanish, Nature Photography, and Irish Dance (just Grace) this week and next week music and golf as well).  It has felt very full but exciting too.  Of course on Monday they were both jumping up and down begging me to start school... and then already by Friday there was some pretty serious complaining about school work.  Hmmm, we will need to work on that or it could end up being a very long year.  Thankfully by Friday afternoon everyone was pretty happy about life again  (though that might have had more to do with the pumpkin muffins).
