School is still in session

While Grandma Saunders visited this week, she took some pictures while school was in session. She also stepped in to give math lessons, read with the kids, and grade assignments. It was so wonderful to have her with us. We wish her visit could have lasted longer so that we could benefit from more of her talents. Our plan is to have Grandma teach us how to sew when we visit her in January. Don't you think pajama pants would be a fitting school uniform?

Sometimes Daddy is the substitute teacher when Mommy is busy (or fed up). They really like it when he does the science lessons.

For recess, these kids like to play Legos or Wii. In fact, we've started calling recess "Wii-cess."
Grandma got to hear MANY concerts this week, especially by Emma. The kids have worked so hard on their Christmas songs. Hopefully we can incorporate their music into our Christmas pageant this year.
We've moved the keyboard into Emma's bedroom because she likes to play so much. She kept bugging Jacob every time she wanted to practice in his room.

We will have to get with that sewing project when you are here in January/February. We may make some wild and crazy pajamas kids!

Amen to that! How fun that Grandma got to help with school. We did give them one spelling test, but otherwise we kind of abandoned school during our visit. However, we did do several field trips, so that counts, doesn't it? (not sure about the one to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame -- does that meet academic standards?)
