So much for my daily entries! Life has been funny....when I have exciting things I want to put in my blog, I don't have time or energy to blog, but when I do have the time and energy, I can't think of exciting blog material.
We had a marvelous experience with Atsushi, our Japanese exchange student. He was a gracious, kind boy who loves the Lord. His English was extremely limited which made life interesting. He was not demanding in the least. Highlights of the weekend were miniature golfing, basketball, church, and making a photo album for him. The low point was definitely saying goodbye. I hope that we stay in touch with him.
Tonight is the culmination of our Medieval Co-op, our Knights and Fair Maidens Banquet and Ball. We rented ridiculous-looking clothing, have practiced our Irish dancing, are cooking stew in the crock pot as I type, have made our shields out of foam board, and have gathered most of our materials for the evening. Hopefully I can post a picture afterwards. Darren even rented clothing and has a hat just like this smiley
Tomorrow, I am going to a unit study workshop by Jennifer steward. I am looking froward to it. Ir eally prefer to teach creatively in this fashion but often go back to well-word path of "bookwork" instead. I need inspiration and am hoping that's what Jennifer's workshop will provide.
One week from today, I am speaking at Ladies' Retreat. I am still a bit freaked out. It seems so much more real now. I am hoping for a few hours of organizing time on Sunday so I will be cohesive on the 31st.
That's about it for now. Take care, all!
