Carlsbad Beach 🏄
Carlsbad beach is simply breathtaking 🌊
The view captured there was absolutely amazing!
There were surfers 🏄 riding the waves as the sun was setting which was so fun to watch.
The ocean was captivating as the tide started to move in and we couldn’t help but get caught by it as it came in. Such a beautiful moment ❤️ I wish we would have had a whole day here just to enjoy it .
Happy PI Day 3.14 ⭐️
This is one of my favorites ❤️ Pi Day !
Yesterday in class we celebrated by measuring circles of all sizes, watched a fun video that explained Pi and measured Oreos .. Yumm! Ofcourse they all measured out to Pi so that was fun to see.
My favorite activity was to have the whole class stand up and form a circle. We then measured our diameter and multiplied it by Pi (3.14) which gave us the circumference. We then divided the circumference by the diameter and it equaled Pi . So fun!
I also challenged the students to write 3.14 on a white piece of paper and head to the mirror.. it should read PI.E as long as your four is a closed 4 .
I hope you have fun today learning Pi ⭐️

Gather 🍁
Having an inviting table doesn’t have to be super fancy . You can take a few things to make a beautiful setting that is practical and inviting.
.
The memories , conversations , plans, school work and sharing of life that happens around a table is immeasurable. It is essentially the hub of a home. A place to gather , cry , work out life and laugh ❤️
.
I do wonder if every grain in the wood of this table could contain all of it. Would the grain lines of the wood be darker when there were years scorched by fire or hardships ,would the grain have lines wider in years being well watered and flourishing in love or have thinner lines in years of drought ? Interesting to think about what it would hold.
.
What ever season you are in , remember it’s just that a season. Take time to enjoy your family or a friend around your table. Invite them to linger and stay a little bit longer. Savor the grain lines that are forming 🍁

Grand ole Opry
This has been a bucket list adventure since I was a little girl watching Hee Haw ⭐️We had the opportunity to go visit @opry and do a backstage tour.
.
Upon arriving,you are ushered into this beautiful room that is rich with history all over the walls.To see some of Country Musics Performers ,past and present is amazing.
You are then greeted by a virtual Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood as they walk you through the Opry’s history and how it all started.Seeing the past performances is priceless✨
It was also pretty cool to learn how they brought the wood circle from the Ryman with them when they moved.For performers, it is the highlight if their career to step onto the circle ✨The Opry has a limited amount of performers that get asked to become a member of the Opry . It is a lifetime achievement moment for those that are asked.
.
It was so amazing to see the look at the @opry through the years. It totally took me back to watching the show sitting with my Grandma & Grandpa and the sweet memories⭐️

If you are visiting @nashvilletn then you need to put this on your list⭐️
.
a few tips .. DO NOT BUY ONLINE we figured this out the hard way . We bought tickets online and the service fee was slot more then if you just buy on property. The only time it would benefit you to buy online is if you are on a strict timeframe and need to plan your visit .
Gathered Thoughts
There are so many pieces of our homeschool year that are coming to an end . Some of them we are so ready for and others bring tears .
.
This year started out with all its uncertainty and some of these pieces came together out of not really knowing how they would work or fit into our year.
.
We joined a pod with a few other families, I taught Math via online to two students, I taught my littles .. All their classes.. ( except highschool biology ), and I taught an American Girl Doll History class . Each of these brought joy and fun in unexpected ways to our family this year. They kept us moving forward and created friendships that will be lifelong.
.
As many of these come to an end this week , I am thankful and humbled.This year can’t be repeated, it is a unique one of a kind year and I’m so thankful for getting to create those wonderful memories!
.
We are however, so excited to be done with Math and our other studies and looking forward to lazy summer days of reading and meeting up with friends .
.
How was your year? Did you try something new ? I would love to hear from you .. Let me know in the comments below❤️
