1.  Valentine’s Lunch at Panera.
2.  We played a great game at Co-op that Keilee first played virtually with Jessica’s girls.  It involves a HUGE taped roll of candy and dice.  They loved it!
3.  Practice for Shrek the Musical
4.  Famous person dress up day at Co-op.  Keilee said she was “Amelia Earhart with style”
5.  Writing class via FaceTime with Jessica
6.  Great game making site we found that she has spent a lot of time on.  It is Game Star Mechanics.  We both played on this site making mazes for each other to maneuver. 
7.  The purse she made with bottle tabs and yarn.  This turned out AWESOME.  I seriously loved it.

I found a new FREE Chemistry site for Keilee.  She likes it a lot so far although she thought it was too easy.  She seems to think the first few lessons of anything are too easy and she loses interest.  I try to explain that no matter how many times she has taken a course the first few lessons are always review.  You can find it here at Middle School Chemistry.

And as always she did tons of Art Journaling.  She spends hours and hours a week doing this.

The weather was GORGEOUS this week and we spent a lot of time outside.  We actually sat in the sun on Tuesday.  We took walks and played with Nomad.  It made us both want Spring and Summer so badly. 

Prayer Request:
My boss Stan has been in the hospital for over a week.  He had his appendix out and then they removed 3′ of his colon because of infection.  Please keep him in your prayers.  I am also laid off again.  I have been since the end of December and I haven’t mentioned it but we would love your prayers. 

We have big plans for this weekend and next week.  I would love for the weather to stay lovely but it isn’t supposed to.  It’s ok, I will close my eyes and imagine hot Summer days.  They will be here soon enough!

Homeschool Rocks!

  1. You always have such beautiful weeks. I will be praying for your boss and about your job situation. God always provides a way but I know that even in knowing that stress still happens. I especially love the art journal!! 🙂

  2. We used Middle School Chemistry last year and it does get a little more challenging as it progresses. Miss 13 thought they did repeated information a lot though or said the same thing several different ways. I guess what I saw as thoroughness she saw as overly repetitive. I did like that most of the labs were easy to do at home and we found You Tube videos for most of the rest. Hoping for good news for both you and your boss.

  3. Keilee’s journal really is quite the work of art! It’s just beautiful! I’ll bet Jeremiah would love the game making site. I’m definitely going to show it to him. The chemistry site sounds good too. I’ll be praying for your boss and your job situation. I also cannot wait for spring!

  4. Keilee is seriously talented. to make a purse that beautiful from practically nothing is nothing short of amazing! The imagination to have thought up and then executed – brilliant!

  5. Will be praying for you guys and Stan. As always, I love Keilee’s art journaling, and I hope that you guys have a great weekend!

  6. I am sorry to hear about your boss and job. PRaying that it all improves soon. You are such an inspiration. I just love seeing what you are all up to each week.
    Blessings,
    Dawn

  7. So sorry about your boss and the job situation. We will definitely be praying. Shrek the Musical sounds awesome. What part will she be playing?
    Blessings

  8. We still pray for the two of you, but will pray for these specific items too. I really hope your boss’ health improves quickly, as well as your job situation.

    I love all of Keilee’s artwork. It is so much fun every week to look at her creative endeavors.

    I hope you enjoy your weekend and the weather cooperates.

  9. I am sorry to hear about your job…and your boss’ health problems. I will pray for both things. I smiled when you said that K. always gets bored with the beginning lessons and then doesn’t want to do the program…I have that same problem with my Sam. I have learned to skip the first few lessons and then he sometimes will go back if he needs to. K.’s talents are so amazing…she is so creative and capable. I love her art and I know her acting is incredible. You two inspire me each week to grasp the best of life.
