Week Thirty Six: Going Full On Fall

September 14, 2020 • Leave a Comment

Some people wait until October to get their Autumn vibe going. Not us! As soon as that calendar shifts to September, its Pumpkin Spice time. Of course, it's still warm out, so there's plenty of days in shorts and sunshine, but we're decorating, cooking and thinking of crisp Autumn days.

Week Thirty Five: It's been 20 years!

No, not 20 years of blogging. ;). Mr. Christine's Camera and I have been married for 20 years! Of course, I don't think we'd planned on celebrating this milestone in the middle of a pandemic...but we celebrated as best we could. We'll probably have to save any big parties for the 25th, but here's what it looked like.

Week Thirty Four...Baseball and Some Other Stuff

I'm only half kidding with that title. But, yowza there's been a lot of baseball in the Christine's Camera household. I'm looking forward to cooler weather, and weekends where I'm only sitting in a camp chair if I'm camping.

How are you doing? Surviving the first weeks of school? Have you started drinking Pumpkin Spice Lattes or are you waiting? I'm totally in on PSL. In fact, if I'd been a Spice Girl, I'd have been Pumpkin Spice.

Week Thirty Three...School's In!

How crazy to think that I've got a Sophomore and an 8th grader. We actually started homeschooling when they were in kindergarten and second grade. It seems like forever ago.

Boy am I glad to have all that experience under our belts. I've talked to some moms who are trying to navigate hybrid schooling or remote learning and it's not working well. It looks like school districts around here are trying to make the militant scheduling of brick and mortar work at home and these families are struggling. How about you? Have you found your groove?

I hope you have! We've got your back over here.

Week Thirty Two, the end of summer break.

Wow, this summer went so incredibly fast! I'm honestly not sure how that happened. You'd think that being locked down to a degree would make it all slower. No such luck! So here we are in the last week before the kiddies start school again.

So many people are stressed about what to do about kids returning to school, I'm doubly grateful that we homeschool. So until it begins, time to soak up the last of summer break.
