Blogger Friend School Assignment #1

Posted in Fun, Homeschooling, and Thoughts

Question 1: Brief introduction into why I started blogging and my goals for journaling.I started blogging as a way to keep friends and family updated on how we were doing and what was going on in our lives. Blogging has become a method for me to journal and keep track of different things going on in our lives. I’m bad about actually writing in a journal, so blogging has become a fun way to journal. I would like to set up a mother/daughter journal where munchkin and I can write back and forth. I think it would be a wonderful…

Seasonal Delights

Posted in Thoughts

I had to do a quick post to let everyone know about a new online magazine that Kelli (and her husband) from There is No Place Like Home have put out. It’s called Seasonal Delights; it’s absolutely beautiful. You can subscribe here for free! It’s a quarterly magazine for “young ladies and their mothers”. The current (and first) issue is the Autumn issue with fabulous ideas for fall entertaining, decorating, and homemaking (and much more).

Where Did I Go????

I woke up Thursday morning to a laptop that was no longer working (again), so after just picking it up on Monday, I headed back over to the shop to drop it off yet again….

We’ve head an absolutely wonderful weekend. I’ll try to write more later on all of our…

Monday Musings

Whew!! What a day! It was one of those days that was filled with ups and downs. Munchkin is still sick, so that explains a lot of it. We started back up with school again today after our little delay last week due to her being really sick. Overall, that went well minus a few “glitches” from not feeling well. Munchkin has been really interested in learning more about formal tea parties, so we looked around for a tea set at some thrift stores. We didn’t have any luck. Then, I remembered that I had a box that had some…

Checking In

Posted in Family, and Thoughts

We enjoyed a surprise “longer” weekend with D this past weekend. He was able to spend all day Friday and Saturday with us. He headed back on Sunday afternoon. Since it had been about a month since he had been home, this was very precious time for us. We put aside all work and just enjoyed family time. Munchkin is continuing to do well with school. We’re really enjoying the new Little House unit study that we’re doing. Unfortunately, Munchkin woke up sick this morning. So today, we’re just relaxing and watching recorded episodes of the Magic School Bus and…
