Small Town Blessings

We have been blessed!!

The Homeschool Co-Op welcomed us into their community this past school ('07'-'08) year. The older girls have really enjoyed all the youth events and activities, the most recent "Get Smart" play production and cast party. We look forward to next year.

The end of the year family picnic was held at Casel-Land, a small amusement park. There were go-karts (Nathan's favorite), bumper-boats, and mini-golf. Our entire family had a blast!!! You should have seen Eric climb into one of the go-karts with Abby, he was eating his knees.

The kids just completed two weeks of swimming lessons at the city pool.

The local PORTALES library offers many types of reading programs for all ages. The new children's librarian, Ms. Heather, has been an awesome asset.

Hannah won the High Plains Film Festival in May.

Rachel won honorary mention in the library poetry contest.

Nathan had a great first time baseball season.

Abby recently got her ears pierced and makes friends wherever she goes.

We discovered that the Eastern New New Mexico University's Golden Library has an Educators Resource Center, its a room filled with all types of curriculum and manipulates. A small jackpot for the homeschool family.

GOD IS GOOD. ALL THE TIME!!
