Wow!  I didn't realize it's been so long since I posted!  Lots has been happening.  This week Alycia attended her first American Girl class.  3 hours every other Thursday; she's pretty excited about that.  We've also been attending story hour at the base library every Wednesday, and during that time, Daniel has been volunteering his time there.  Now, while Alycia's at her AG class, Daniel and I will both be working in the library (David will watch movies or charm the library staff )  As you can tell, we're thoroughly enjoying the library!

Other things....last week we attended a play day at the park on Tuesday afternoon.  It was great for all of us!  The kids enjoyed making new friends and I enjoyed some Mommy time with other homeschooling Moms!

And yes, in amongst the fun stuff, we are getting school done too.  Believe it or not I am STILL following my schedule (okay, with a few little tweaks, but still...)  Glenn came home last Monday and informed me that he had the next 2 weeks off, so that makes it a little more challenging, but we're getting stuff done none-the-less.

It has been raining for 2 days and last night there was sleet.  You can't even begin to imagine the excitement of the kids when they looked out the front window and saw SNOW on the tops of the mountains.  They are beside themselves.  Last night we even fired up the fireplace in the living room...and had s'mores.  Quite fun!!  But this morning Glenn discovered that our heater is not working, so now we really need to keep the fire burning!  However, we need a chainsaw to cut the wood that a friend is giving us.  Ah, the fun of it all.....BUT AT LEAST WE'RE HAVING REAL, SEASONAL WEATHER (my apologies to my southern friends, you are all dear to me but your climate is NOT!)

Oh, one interesting note...I've never really been big on preschool (thought it was enough to get the upper grades getting their work done) but David has really dived into it!  While the big kids work on their writing, Daniel and I sit and do several pages out of his work books, and he does really well too.  Can't believe that little curly-top will be 4 soon!  Wow!! 

Well, guess that's all for now!  Will try to get more frequent with this!

Blessings all!
