This poor, neglected blog!  I've just not been in the blogging mood, but am making myself post.  So, this is probably not going to be interesting.  Not that my other posts were...well, whatever. 

We're studying Ancient Civilizations this year and we've been in Rome the past few weeks.  I'm  reading aloud to Cait and Brett from Story of the World.  This week we learned about Julius Caesar.  Alexis listens in most of the time because it is a good review.  Cait and Brett really enjoy the Usborne Time Traverler series and we just finished this book.

  They also enjoyed this book about Pompeii

With Zarek and Alexis I'm reading aloud from Augustus Caesar's World, which is a great book. 

Zarek and Alexis are also reading The Ides of April and will follow up with the next book, Beyond the Desert Gate.

Sometime this week I'm going to Michael's to get Caitlyn and Brett mosaic kits, they're looking forward to doing those.  So that's about it, we're just trying to move right along, we're on week 13 on Sonlight.  Very behind.  I can only keep moving forward and try  not to worry about it.  Spring Break is coming up soon and the kids will have two weeks off, as the next week is Jody's vacation time.  I plan on having them keep up with their literature reading though.
