The Cowpens Library holds a monthly homeschool program and every Tuesday is Family night with the kids at the Main Branch.

Many of the community branches also have activities for homeschoolers.

Check out their calendar:

Scrapbook Creations holds a monthly class.You must register in advance.

It's only $5 a class and it's well worth it:  http://www.scrapbkcreations.com/page/page/1165014.htm

Kirsten decided she wanted to take ballet this year after taking Gymnastics last year at Spartanburg Gymnastics.  She misses Gymnastics but really loves all the friends she's made @ ballet.

Spartanburg Gymnastic is where she went:  http://www.spartanburggymnastics.com/

There is also Kozeev's, but we have never been there:  http://www.kozeev.com/

Mild November weather!

A trip to Clifton Beach November 3rd!

Happy Halloween!

Here is a cool edit I did of Kirsten for Halloween.

Given a choice......Homeschool!!!!!!

After deciding to give public school a try, Kirsten has decided it's going to be much more fun to homeschool and "do our own thing".

I am so thrilled that she made this decision all on her own.

In the 3 weeks that she was in public school I could see that her love for art had started to be undermined. She said, "I don't like art." ????? She has always loved art!

She didn't want me to read to her either.....????? Not normal for her at all.

Our 1st week and we are back into "our" swing and loving it!

I was actually nominated to the School Improvement Council. I was stoked for that. I really wanted a voice. However, even though I could still serve as a community member, children aren't allowed at the meetings.

Ahem.......

yeah, School Improvement at it's best.....excluding the kids huh?
