Our Week

This past Wednesday we had our co-op state history class, the kids really have enjoyed the class and the teacher has been very through. I find myself saying, "Really, I didn't know that"! We missed a couple of classes and she provided the material we missed so that over the summer we can complete the state history book.

Friday was our last day of co-op classes, because we had the state history class on Wednesday, the kids only had the Answers In Genesis class, afterwards all the children were gathered together for pictures, of course I did not bring my camera. There were two well deserved teacher who were recognized for their outstanding service to the group, congratulations Rayeanne and Michelle!

Saturday I hosted a "Mom's Get Together" of homeschooling moms at my home. We have been trying to get together each month or at least every other month to stay connected. Three ladies were able to make it, and what a joy it was to be able to catch up and to talk face-to-face about what is going on. I so look forward to our little gatherings.

Eric took the kids to the Asparagus Festival at Sneed's Farm on Saturday, I asked him to find out the proper way to cook asparagus, but he didn't get that information for me - so if you know how to prepare asparagus, please let me know. After the festival they headed to lunch, then to the movies to see Indian Jones and Crystal Skull.

Last week was a busy week and we did not complete all of our Tapestry of Grace assignments for Week 28, since this was the first week of a new unit, I want to make sure that the kids have a good start in our last unit, so we will continue Week 28 this week.

Last night Eric and I had a little visitor in the backyard - a fox! Not sure what kind of fox, but the little guy was enjoying eating the bird seed. The light didn't seem to bother him very much, I guess he was really hungry, I tried to get some pictures, but non of them came out.
