I'm sorry the boys didn't win, but I'm sure it was a great experience for them. It took a lot of hard work and team work to get to where they got. The cake looks great!

Wow! Neat Pictures! It looks like a great time was had by all dispite the results. Glad everyone is looking forward to next year - what a special opportunity for the boys with their dad.

Chickens? Woohoo - I look forward to future Farmer Mary stories. LOL. Ours are great layers, but sure wander a lot - I don't have high hopes of these lasting too long with all the predators around.

Who says homeschoolers don't socialize?

Mary,
In answer to your question, yes, it happens MOST of the time. It is rare that I can get pages to load AND be able to post a response.

I'm trying to find a balance between surfing the net and still being a keeper at home. I'm very close to just giving up the surfing. My main goal is to help and encourage women, and I wanted to do that through my blog. I was just hoping I could find some encouragement along the way from other blogs, but it seems to be more of a stumbling block at this point.

What fun pictures! Thanks for sharing.

I have a favor to ask...I wanted to post about my dad but mom's computer won't let hsblogger let me post any new entries. :(

Could you ask the ladies to pray for my dad and our family.
He had necrotizing fasciitis (flesh eating disease) and they had to remove his hand and lower left arm. He's in critical condition and all our time is spent at the hospital...the doctors are hopeful but this is going to be a very long journey. The kids are doing ok but my baby Lou 8 is taking his mama being gone very hard and all the gradkids are so concerned about grandpa C...

thank you for your note dear friend. You are always a sweetie.

tired hugs,

Jenny

Handsome and I




First , I am a daughter of the King almighty and a a wife to my Handsome of 17 years. A mom of 4 on the go boys 15, 13, 9, and 7. I grew up in the states but married my Canadian sweetheart and moved up north. We live in the southern part of British Columbia , Canada on our homestead. We have homeschooled our four boys from birth and plan to go the distance till all four graduate from our homeschool. I teach with a Charlotte Mason style and use the Heart of Wisdom Approach. I love to craft! I am a beader, knitter, x-stitcher, quilter. We have been on a journey of being apart of building "The House that God Built". I have been recording our journey on my blog. Go to my links and you will find it. I know God has a lot more instore for us and we just need to follow where our Lord takes us.
