First Day ~ June

By

Today I would normally be posting on Tuesday Coffee Chat, but today's topic is about any DIY projects we have done recently. With our extra crazy May, including graduating one child from high school and marrying off another one in not one but two weddings which included a family caribbean vacation, the only thing I am doing myself is laundry. We'll catch back up with Leslie at Time Out for Mom next week (but you can jump over there to see what fun projects are going on in the worlds of other ladies).

Although I was absolutely exhausted yesterday to the point of being sick, I did manage to snap some photos of our First Day of June. We had to jump right in to volleyball camp, errands, and a softball game so there was little rest yesterday. Today I am staying in my pjs doing laundry and watching When Calls the Heart on Netflix. I will probably do much of the same tomorrow.

But yesterday ...

Back from vacation.

It was a drizzly 57 degree day, so bean with bacon soup was needed.

Fun mail!

7 whole days with no electronics, so ....

The necessities for my day ... coffee and Tylenol.

This got filed at the courthouse.

Mrs. Werths and I got some groceries.

And she got her new driver's license. (She had forgotten
half of her required documents so her new, very understanding
husband had to drive them to us.) 

I managed to sneak in a couple episodes of When Calls the Heart.

Trying out the new frisbee purchased in Honduras. Always frisbee around here.

Fun new fruit infusion cup I bought at Aldi.

Our doggies missed us, and we missed them!

Softball night dinner.

Best friends rock!

This dog kept running onto the field and chasing the ball.

One of the dads had to rope him and tie him to a pole.

Brynne had an awesome game! She hit a double, had a play at first for
an out, and then caught a pop fly with a double play at first.

Join Nicole at Journey to Josie for more First Day fun!

    Looks like you had a great day! It was chilly and rainy here too. We needed to turn the heat on, grrr. I shared a picture of our thermometer in my first day post.

CTC Math {Schoolhouse Review}

By
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)

By
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...
