PCB

Panama City Beach is a tradition with my family each year.  My Aunt Sue and Uncle John own a condo there and we have been going every summer for almost 20 years!  

Thankfully the girls and I were in Georgia and we were able to drive down with my parents for the whole week.  Unfortunately my brother's family couldn't make it this year!  We missed them!  Of course we missed Chad too!

Like typical kids - the pool was the FAVORITE place to be! Mya was tough in the pool though b/c she just wanted to swim like her sister!  She would walk right of the steps if we'd let her.  





Addison wanted to practice without her swimmies.  She did really well, but was scared of putting her face in the water at first. 



 Dinner at the Shrimp Boat






The BEACH!!  The waves were amazing (for the Gulf anyways!)



This was right before I got a pretty painful sunburn that would put me out of the sun for most of the week!  Ouch!  Riding the waves all afternoon was so much fun though!

Pier Park has become a little amusement park.  Addison loves these bungie trampolines.   

Does this look like Malory Monroe to anyone else???



 Riding the rides...

Mommy's favorite!




Once she got over putting her face in the water, she was swimming like a pro! (just need to work on not hold her nose...)


Back to the beach




With the heat and humidity I had a hard time keeping my lens from fogging up.  

Nothing wears out little ones like a day at the beach.  

Sweet girl!!  You know you've had a good day when you fall asleep with sand in your eyelashes!


Headed to our favorite restaurant - Captain Anderson's!

Curriculum Review 2017-18

                                  Curriculum Review 2017-18 I believe I started last year's post by saying "This was the most difficult school year to date." While overall it was a good year, it was different kind of difficult.  A deployment and chronic mastitis were replaced with starting a new Co-Op and writing a book.   While I don't know that I would recommend writing a book in 10 months while homeschooling, during one of the busiest seasons of your husband's job, I am thankful for the year we had.  The past year brought more personal growth for me than any other year.  Homeschooling truly is a refining fire and I am thankful for the lessons we all learn in the process.   Here’s a roundup of what we used this year and how it worked for us: Addison – 5 th  Grade Bible, History, Literature, Geography & Writing – Tapestry of Grace, Year 2, Dialectic...

Blogs are interesting.  Some share decorating ideas, some political philosophy, some day to day happenings and many more pictures of family and friends.  We keep everyone updated on the fun events and happy occasions of our everyday lives.  While some people take it a bit to far, I think most of us are not always so quick to share those not so happy moments though...  The moments that we fail completely as a parent.  The moments that we are to busy to stop and help.  The moments we sit in silence and wonder why.  The moments when life is just flat out hard.  In a few weeks I will watch my husband go off to war.   In a few weeks I will have to help a little 3 year old mind grasp how long a year is and how far away daddy will be.   I just found out this morning that my aunt passed away.   Next week the list of names I know on headstones at Arlington will get a little bit longer.  I ache for my friends whose husbands won'...
