5 days and counting!
It's about that time to start school again. I have really enjoyed the summer. We have all relaxed and done whatever we wanted. The kids got into a new morning routine. I had time to sell 17 cakes. We were able to go away once for a few days. But all good things must come to an end. Only 5 more days until we say hello to our old homeschool routine. I don't believe in "practicing" to get back to it. We'll do just fine on Monday.

I still have to work on my school planner. I got one for $1 at Target and when I was filling it out I realized it only had 26 weeks in it. That wouldn't get us all the way through school. I ended up going to United Art & Education to get a planner that would get us the entire year.

We do school in our kitchen now and have sold our desks in the school room. We had too much distraction down in the school room. I took down at least half of our posters down there too. I am considering putting up some posters in the kitchen but I don't know if I will. A few of them might be helpful.

We aren't selling our house any more. As soon as we can, we'll take our sign out of our yard. I think we have a contract until November. We are bummed about it but we know it is the right decision. We'll make due and we thank the Lord for giving us peace in our hearts about this AND for providing us with this house.

Chase got a new toy... $69.99 new but we got it for $10 at a yard sale. WOOHOO!!!! Actually Dawn was out of town and saw it at a yard sale. She called and picked it up for us. SUPER!!!
First time in the walker... not sure at first:
Sister Alison wants to see the new toy:

Today I'm thankful for relaxing summer days, diet pop, and the Lord taking hold of our lives and leading us.

Amy,
Thanks so much for your comment on my blog. I would love to get the kids together some time. I tried to use the email link on your blogger account, but it wasn't working. My email address is kerristetler@gmail.com.
