The last few days we've had some wonderful family times. The weather has been georgous!  It's been  warm with a nice breeze.  My hubby took the kids to the park one morning and later that day we enjoyed the outdoors at our home.  Yesterday,  I took the kids for a long  nature walk down a trail near our house and I let the kids take their time looking at the trees, insects, flowers and just being in God's creation. 

We start school in two weeks and  I've come up with a daily schedule. I hope to post it here soon.  My hubby says it's the best "beginning of the year schedule" I've come up with yet.  I'm looking forward to starting school. I have mostly everything we need, but  I still have a few books to order the first of Sept.
