Random 5


I am running a couple of days late on this because we are on vacation and have not had internet access until now. Here is my Random 5 for this week!

1. If I ever just disappear, you might start looking for me in San Francisco. That's probably where I have gone. I love it here.

2. My daughter has secured her post-cosmetology school job! She has confirmed a chair at the newest, hottest salon and spa in our hometown! It's the job she really wanted and she will start there in September. I am so proud of her for going after what she wanted and achieving it. So proud of my Kyndal!

3. Vacation eating is fun, but Brynne and I are ready to get back to our healthy eating and exercise schedule.

4. We watched Sharknado 2: The Second One. It was as horrible as the first one, and I am sure we will watch #3 that comes out in 2015.

5. I gotta go so I can eat a chocolate Pop-tart and drink some milk before I go to bed. Doesn't that sound good? Although #3 is totally true, we still have three days left of vacation!

CTC Math {Schoolhouse Review}

We found our groove with math this year. I found a curriculum that both of the kids respond well to and seem to enjoy (as much as one can enjoy math). We have spent the whole year learning the ins and outs of multiplication and were just a few lessons away from being ready to move onto the next year-long level on division. And then an opportunity to review the 12 Month Family Plan from  CTC Math became available. To be honest, I wasn't very enthusiastic. I mean, why mess with the methods that have worked so well? When I was chosen to review the product I didn't go into it with the level of enthusiasm that it deserved. We have been using a dvd/workbook curriculum with great success. The 12 Month Family Plan from CTC Math is a web based curriculum. As we have not had a lot of luck with those types of programs, I went into this review with a negative attitude. And then my socks were knocked off by how great it is. In fact it is so great that we are going to continue to ...

Veritas Press Self-Paced History: Old Testament and Ancient Egypt (Schoolhouse Review)

For the past several weeks we have been reviewing Veritas Press Self-Paced History: Old Testament and Ancient Egypt and the Old Testament and Ancient Egypt Flashcards  from Veritas Press . As we were entering into our more easy-going summer schedule, and had just concluded a two-year Old Testament Bible course, I was happy to try out this product as it appeared to be something that Eli and Brynne could do together, alone, and would act as a review of the Old Testament presented in a different way. And I was right. Each Veritas Press Self-Paced History program includes 160 lessons teaching about 32 events in history. They are designed for children in grades 2-6, and it is recommended that the student be a minimum of 7 years of age at the time of the first lesson. What We Received We received a full one-year subscription, for one child, to the online Veritas Press Self-Paced History: Old Testament and Ancient Egypt program and the accompanying Old Testament and Ancien...

Cells ~ It's What's for Dinner

Dawson made edible cells on Friday. He made an animal cell pizza ... and a plant cell chocolate chip cookie ... He reviewed what he's learned about cells the past two weeks, and I had dinner made by someone else. Win, win!! I am linking up at Science Sunday at Adventures in Mommydom.
