Last week

Last week we settled into a more predictable homework schedule, and the boys did pretty well managing it on their own. They each missed a couple things, so I think next week will have room for even more improvement.

Most our our after school activities were in play last week: music lessons, climbing team, and football practice. This week cub scouts starts up, and we'll be fully loaded.

Ben's new team is called Triangle Rock Club Climbing Crew (the older kids are the TRC Climbing Team). They practiced on Weds and Friday night, and here are some pictures from Friday:

The kids on the crew are the entire team from LTF - we call came over to TRC together. I've heard there are to be 2-3 new kids joining the TRC team, but we haven't met them yet. These kids all get along really well, and are very supportive of each other. It's a great environment for Ben. And you can see that the climbing gym is so much more colorful and challenging than the rock wall at LTF.Ben topping out on the boulder - it's 14 ft high.
