Now that I am living in my Momma’s house, I run across various pictures of me when I was a little girl. School pictures that I always seem to look uncomfortable and awkward in, pictures of my brothers and I, the occasional picture of my Mother and I. I cherish these glimpses back into my life as a child.
Kei will never have the problem of not having enough pictures of her when she was young. I use my camera everyday. I am not a great photographer, but I have such an adorable subject I don’t even need to be a pro.
That being said, here are my offerings for last week. 🙂
Kei and I went to see “Your a Good Man Charlie Brown”. The kids did an amazing job on it! Leah directed and did Charles Schulz proud. We were especially proud of Shane in the lead role.
Friday night we went to a slumber party/Perseid Meteor Shower.† Don’t you just love having sleep overs?† There were 19 of us and the kids and adults had a blast.† Except for my whole ‘bruised rib’ incident that I won’t go into.
The kids had a blast as always!
We saw several meteors.† It was beautiful.† The skies were cloudy but cleared up.† It was just breathtaking and we oohed and ahhed like it was a fireworks display.
The moms woke up early and sat and talked while the kids and Matt stumbled in one by one.† It was a great time!!† I love our friends and the fact that they all homeschool just makes it that much better!
We started our 2nd week of Homeschooling Monday.† We are loving Time 4 Learning. I am supplementing it with all kinds of hands on projects.
Kei spent an afternoon making a Garden stone.† Then I had the bright idea of using a frisbee for the mold for a plain one.† It was awesome until we actually tried to take it out of the mold.† Broke…but Kei made it work.
She explained to me why she ‘ran’ the colors together.† She said in nature everything† combines together.
Wonderful times, wonderful friends, wonderful memories.
Be Blessed,

Our girls would have *so* much fun! Mine would own a zoo in a second, wants to have a bakery right now and my hips are starting to prove how good she is at her bakery creations! LOL Thanks for stopping by my blog!
Love those stones, and the way she thinks:) We used T4L for awhile last year to supplement. The kids enjoyed the games!
I can’t find your email address. Maybe it is not linked to your blog. I would love to send you my brother’s address. Email me at jvsnajder@gmail.com and I will get it to you! The offer to write to him is very thoughtful and totally appreciated!
How much fun was your week??!! I love the sleepover concept.
What fun! Thanks for the visit! Homeschooling does rock!
I played Lucy in that musical. A long, LONG time ago.
When I read your blog, I’m always struck by all the amazing memories you’re making together with your daughter.
🙂
Happy Friday.
