The first day of school in the Dewey house!
We began with bible and are going through the gospels this year.
Day 1: Matthew 1

Each of the kids got some special new books from Grandma and Papa.

Jase is going to be memorizing his ABC bible verses this year.

Welcome back to school!

Our first week of CC memory work.

Jase's birthday present from the girls arrives -
His very own BOY Bitty Baby Twin which he named Michael Jacob.
Here is a picture of the kids with all their "American Girl" dolls.
Kids: Kira, Jase, and Siri
Dolls: Kaya, Kirsten, Michael Jacob, Isabel Faith, and Elizabeth

First day of Classical Conversations!
I came down from getting ready and Daddy told the kids they could each take a
family picture along to use during their introduction presentations.

First day of Classical Conversations

Mondays are often pajama days. We LOVE Mondays!
This day, we did a Christopher Columbus craft.







This is our American History bookshelf.

Kira has really enjoyed going through the Sisters In Time series which are
Christian fiction books based on different important events in our American
history. Love them!

Mommys favorite shelf in the school room - Story of the World!

Duchess always has to have her cage moved into the school room before we start
the day otherwise she whines and whines and whines! She doesn't mind her
crate, she just wants to be near us and around us!

Getting ready for Wacky Hair day at co-op

The girls put almost every hair bow they own on their heads.

This is definitely wacky hair!
