We began homeschooling in San Antonio, Texas, in 2005.

I was a tiny bit more comfortable with homeschooling during our second year.

We continued with following the plans in The Well-Trained Mind.

Our Curriculum for Our 2nd Homeschool Year:

  • First Language Lessons
  • Spelling Workout
  • Studying God’s Word
  • Singapore Math
  • Apologia Exploring Creation with Astronomy Science
  • Prima Latina

We still enjoyed working in our little garden.

Our First Garden

We loved harvesting and cooking and eating our beans and squash!

Liz continued with weekly art classes at ArtWorks. She learned more about artists and different media and produced more lovely art. We miss it!

Art Projects 2006 through 2007

We took lots of field trips and had weekly park/co-op days.

Firehouse Field Trip

We loved visiting a local duck pond.

We loved the plants and flowers at the San Antonio Botanical Garden.

Liz participated in Operation Jet, a mock deployment day at the base.

We visited Wildseed Farms and tagged a monarch butterfly.

We checked online to see when it arrived in South America on its migration.

Tori is a great little helper! She loves to sweep the floor!

Texas was a great place to begin our homeschooling journey.

We moved to Hawaii at the end of the summer. That was an adventure for three years!

I'm not sure at what point or even how to reconcile this and I just feel very alone.
