Homeschool PE

We joined the YMCA in April.  One thing I found out they had was homeschool PE.  So, we signed up for the month of May.  The girls really enjoyed it, but I am not convinced we will do it again when school starts back (shhh...haven't told the girls that yet though).  The only real reason is because it makes for such a long day.  We had to do school first thing and be super diligent to get it all in  and lunch to be at the YMCA by 12:30.  PE lasted until 2pm then we ran home for a minute then to art class by 3:45 with pickup at 4:45.  Then, rush home to eat supper and be at church by 6:10 until 7:45.  Just makes for such a long day.  I know it's only one day a week, and there are lots of benefits;  hence why a decision has not yet been made.  Fun fact:  the leader's name is Cantina....same as my sweet cousin.  You just don't run into many of those. 

Wonder World

The first thing we participated in was a trip to Wonder World in Prattville.  The girls got to roller skate and play on inflatables.  They had LOTS of fun with this!
The girls hugging the wall.  Didn't take them long, though, to get the hang of it.

Swimming

The next Wednesday was swim day.  Clearly, this needs no explanation.  And, if you know my girls, you know this was a hit!
They are in the pink and purple (if you can't tell).


Horseback Riding and Archery

The last class was horseback riding and archery.  This was Ella's absolute favorite since she wants us to move to a horse farm ASAP.  She is quite the little persuader...always trying to convince me of why we need a horse and how it is completely doable.  Leah was scared so they let Ella ride with her and then let Ella make a round by herself.  Afterwards, they got to do some archery.  Ella liked it and had tried it before at Kids Camp at church but Leah chose not to participate in this one.  Shocker.
