Tuesday Coffee Chat





Right now is the perfect time to ....

share photos from Kyndal's bridal shower this past weekend. We had such a nice time celebrating our girl as she gets ever closer to become a bride. Kyndal and Collin are getting married in a family ceremony on May 22nd to make it legal. But then we are going to Cozumel, Mexico, for the official wedding on the beach on May 26th. It is going to be a beautiful time of celebration!





At the shower we had a Recipe Station where we asked all of her guests to bring their favorite recipe. She received several kitchen items and a personalized recipe box.



We had quite a spread of food with various rollups, fruits, cheeses, veggies, and lemon buddies.



The cake was made by her future cousin-in-law.


We played a few fun games. Each lady received a ring when they arrived and were instructed to take the ring of anyone who said "Kyndal", "Collin" or "Wedding" throughout the shower. That got interesting as we were doing introductions! Then while eating we played a game of Purse Hunt. I called out items worth various points and if the ladies had that item in their purse they received the points. The one with the most points won. The last game was a lingerie-making game with nothing but toilet paper and a two-inch piece of tape. So fun!!


It was just a nice day for Kyndal in the midst of all of the stresses of the wedding. I love my girl so much and am so excited for her future!

  4. what a lovely shower you had for her!! It looks like you had so much fun. I loved my bridal showers (yes, I got more than one, spoiled me.) because they were just a nice time to sit, relax and visit with your loved ones, in the middle of all the planning. Best stress relief you can get!
    Many blessings for the couple!

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
