Shaz by the Sea

We have discovered a new little adventure walk near our house and it's been really fun. We get to see Boston as well as Horn Pond, Library Field, the Woburn Police Station, schools, etc). The boys walked up here today. Conor took this picture of Mom and Dad. Something I am really proud of is their journals. They started the journals the second or third home schooling day. Caden started with one notebook and then switched - so that's why we only have a few pics of Conor's journal at first.

He is LOUD which bothers Conor and Caden a little bit, but once he gets into something like painting, magnet tiles, play dough, or something then he is a little more calm. He talks a LOT, just like me. Like I have written in my "About Shaz" section (I think?) ...
