Okay, it has been a very long time since I have updated things. I thought I would share what we have been doing in school and in home.

Here is what is going on with the family

Halloween was the last time I updated. Halloween! Gosh, tons of stuff has happened since then. We went to Colonial Allensworthxc for Thanksgiving which was a real treat. The family spent some really nice time together playing games, taking walks and eating fantastic food cooked by Mom.

Christmas was the usual rush. We survived that just fine. Russ built a room for me so I could have enough room for everyone. We spent New Years at Moms again. Nothing special to report except for Beth made midnight.

January was fun with Nick turning 9. He celebrated at Disneyland and then we went to Lego Land Aquarium. He had a great time!

Now it is February and we have a lot of ground to cover. I’ll keep you posted.

Here is what we have going on in school:

In November we hosted a Fun on the Farm craft day. We made all kinds of really cute crafts. December schooling only lasted a short while for us as we were busy making decorations and stuff. We typically school for the first week of December and take off the rest for winter break.

January was great fun with the fire safety class that we had. Many kids joined us in learning about fire safety. The Children really loved when the firemen came with their fire truck.

We have also begun an art class with the kids. We have a couple of other families joining us with that. I will be posting what we do so you can see how to teach art appreciation to your students.

Well, that is it in a nutshell. I am hoping to keep a bit more regular postings as we finish out the rest of the year. Please bare with me as I do a lot of things in a month and before I know it, time is gone………………….
