Well, the end of summer for us marked the beginning of our 2nd year of homeschooling. This year, however, Calvin officially joined the school roster as he began kindergarten! Woohoo! Let the adventures begin!
As an end-of-summer last hurrah, we joined a wonderful family and a few other friends for an afternoon of boating on the river. This, too, was "take 2" of an outing we appreciated last summer -- we hope we can continue this fun tradition!
Brave little Calvin trying out the kids' skis
Great job, Calvin!
Here is another activity that was a "second act" for Daniel. Every year, Scott organizes a 5K fundraiser race for his cross-country team on Labor Day. For the 2nd year, Daniel ran the whole thing! I was so proud of this little guy! He is such a g0-getter; he definitely enjoys a physical challenge!

and getting a medal -- Daniel couldn't have been happier to receive a 3rd place medal for his age division (10 and under). Way to go, Daniel!
OK, and here is a final "take 2". For the 2nd year, we enjoyed a fall season of soccer. Calvin got to play this year in the pre-school/kindergarten age division. And Daniel moved up to the 1st/2nd grade division, which was a big jump in skill level -- one Daniel really enjoyed!
Although, he'd rather be running around on the field, Daniel also enjoyed an opportunity to play goalie once in a while.
At Calvin's first game, he was excited to learn that 2 boys he already knows are on his team. How fun!
