Wow! It has been almost 2 months since our last post. Sorry about the delay but fall is a busy time in the Wieland household. The girls started school this past September and are doing well. Rachel is in 5th grade, Sarah is in 2nd and Jordan is in Kindergarten. It has been a little strange not to head to the daycare every morning and afternoon!
Rachel is still taking piano lessons and is in Girl Scouts. I expect basketball to start later this fall/early winter so that will be another item to add to the calendar. She also began playing trumpet this year and loves it. I don't even have to remind her to practice!
Sarah is loving school again this year. I think reading is her favorite subject. She always has a book in the van or at home. AR (accelerated reading) tests is something she really excels at. Sarah is also taking piano lessons again and is preparing for her first festival contest this coming Feb. She call the music she is working on her "festible" music. Girl Scouts is an activity we enjoy together because I am her troop leader.
Jordan started all day/every day Kindergarten this year. She is learning a lot and doesn't seem too tired when she gets home. Homework is something that she enjoys doing. I am sure that opinion will change in the future! We registered Jordan for 4-H this year so she is excited to begin her classes. She would like to play hockey with all of her friends (who happen to be boys) but I'm not sure I want to be a "hockey mom."
The fall has been wonderful up her in NW MN. Todd was able to get is harvesting done in record time. He was a little concerned because the crops got in a little late in the spring but the Lord blessed us with warm weather to speed up the drying process.
The girls and I were able to travel to Duluth one weekend for a Wieland Girls Only trip. We accompanied our niece to the bridal shop where she picked out a wedding dress. Rachel is a Jr. Bridesmaid so she got to try on dresses too. She was in heaven! We spent the weekend at a hotel/waterpark where the girls had a blast swimming. We didn't get to see all of the tourist attractions while there, so another trip is in the future.
Ready for the 1st day of school!
Big Kindergartener!
Smiling nice even though it is early.
