Project Life 2014 Week 9: Blue

This week's theme is Blue. Although it is open to interpretation, the theme focused on color. I say it every week, but I LOVE this theme.

Aiden LOVES to play knights and I'm told that the blue guys are the bad guys. I wasn't able to capture many blue guys in the picture which leads me to believe that the good guys must have been winning. I think the blue guys had all been taken captive....or worse. :) 

Sage LOVES to take blue baths....or any color, really. I don't think it's super healthy to sit in artificial die, so it's a treat when we do. Blue baths, green baths, both are refreshing. I have outlawed red baths because I think they are just too weird. Tom remembers taking colored baths as a kid and so it's something we do occasionally. The first time I had to call my mother-in-law to make sure the food coloring wouldn't stain the boys or the bath tub. And while the food coloring won't stain the bath tub, it will stain the carpet if you let a two year old carry the bottle around. He will figure out how to open it!

Anyway, here are my "Blue" pictures. Much of the exposure triangle is still a mystery to me. I feel like I get lucky when I get a good shot. Good thing it's only week 9. Maybe by week 52 my method of picture taking will be more calculated and not based on guess and check.

Apple Creek

 A new year, a new orchard. This year we tried out Apple Creek Orchard and it was a really pretty place. We picked apples, took a hay ride, and the boys had fun with the apple slinger. We were joined by Tom's parents and it feels so good to have them now living close by instead of far away. 

Almost to the finish line.

 It's hard to believe that Aiden turns 18 in one week and walks through graduation in just one month. After more than a decade of homeschooling, 2 years of PSEO, and no less than one million moments that I'll treasure forever, my oldest will be an adult and graduated. Great things are ahead for my boy!

Happy Birthday, Cade!

 My littlest is seven and it's hard  not to be sad. We couldn't be without him, and we're so glad he's ours.  At seven years old Cade loves to do what everyone else is doing. He will NOT play by himself, and maybe it's because he's used to having someone to entertain him all the time. He loves legos and soccer. He also loves to read. I am ALWAYS finding Cade trying to tackle reading a book he probably isn't quite ready for. Lately he's been trying to read The Hobbit. While he's able to read all the words, he just doesn't have the depth of understanding to read it independently quite yet. He LOVES Tom Sawyer so he was delighted to find an abridged version to read.  Cade makes up his own mind about things. He will NOT be bossed around. He holds his own, so I don't worry about his brothers pushing him over. Cade also won't be pushed over physically. He is one tough kid. If Cade is crying, I know he is actually hurt because he never cries ove...
