Back to the Ball Game

V wanted to go with this recreational class that focuses entirely on skills and skill-related games rather than the head-to-head, official-rules, by-the-book league soccer she experienced last fall. Clearly, she's happy with this arrangement:

Photo Glitches Repaired - UPDATE

Well, I'm QUITE behind on sharing photos, which means I also haven't done a great job keeping you posted on our fun activities here at Best Family Academy. Over the past 10 weeks since the external hard drive and my computer stopped talking, here's a brief, pictorial rundown of what we've done.

Camped at Lopez Lake with friends. (Gotta love California winters.)


Hung out in the Oaks (of the Elfin variety).


Worked on the trailer - V helped me re-screen all the windows (so easy a 7 year old can do it!), plus I replaced the window latches so they'll open AND close again, and I filled the void on floor of every cabinet with a bit of foam



Enjoyed the wonderful peace and quiet only a 9-hour power outage on a stormy day can provide:


Took a walk on Old Port San Luis pier after the storm:


Built a dog house:


Enjoyed the fire on rainy days:


Visited the beach on sunny days:


Enjoyed the company of friends:


And family:


Published a book:


Studied and followed the Iditarod:


Exercised our creativity:


Hike with friends to Nojoqui Falls:


Hit the slopes:


Hiked Montana de Oro:


Celebrated special deliveries:


And found the season's first wildflowers:


That about sums it up. Oh yeah. There was garden work and plenty of other stuff going on. But what about you? What have you been up to?
