Well things have been VERY busy now that we are back to school full time along with my new job. Too busy really . I realize what a huge blessing being a stay at home mom has been all these years. Because of that, my focus has somewhat changed at my job. I don't plan to stay there the whole year because of the toll it has taken on my homemaking abilities. My goal right now is to take the money I am earning to invest in an at home buisness I have wanted to do for years. Therefore I will be investing in...
A good camera
Getting my serger fixed
Purchase a website - Which my daughter and I will design
Buy my supplies for my buisness product
You'll have to wait for the unveiling in a month or so to find out what it is!
On the homeschool front, Heart of Dakota curriculum has been everything I hoped it would be and more. I really love it. It was challenging at first trying to homeschool all 4 girls, but I finally found my groove. I am so impressed with this curriculum. Especially the Creation to the Cross program. WOW! It is fantastic.
And now, if I don't have enough on my plate already my whole family (minus my 3 year old son) tried out for the Christmas Carol Musical yesterday and today. The auditions could not have gone any better. I am just so pleased. Even my husband tried out for the first time ever. He did excellent. I can't wait to tell you the news in a week or so if we get cast in the production.
Oh and did I tell you my husband has resigned from his job as an Associate Pastor to begin a new church plant on November 1st? Yep, I think we have a perfect formula for AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
Pray for us! LOL
