Update on us..

Posted By B in Everyday Life
What's Buzzzzing......

It has been crazy in our house.  Sickness, sickness Sickness is what is in our house.  No not the H1N1, swine flu, but we have had strep throat, congestion coming out of eyes and yuckies in the tummies.  We are praying all this is passing.

In the past few weeks we have had a space derby for scouts.  Now our space derby is different then most Scout space derbies.  We take 2lt bottles and fill them w/ about 1/4 way w/ water and then put it on a tube that has compressed air.  Then the boys step back and pull a rope and wow can those 2lts bottle space ships fly.  some went like 40 feet in the air.  it is not a derby of winners but a derby of fun and participation. Here is a picture of the Webelo I and II standing behind their space derby ships.


Baby Bear is now officially Honey Bear.  She hit her head a while ago and I kept saying "O'Honey" and she says Honey all the time now!  So she is not longer Baby Bear but Honey Bear!

Honey Bear became attached to a t-shirt that belong to Moose.  This tshirt had a bumble bee on the front and is brown.  She kept wearing it to bed, (that was the only place she could wear it as we do not allow her to wear pants, her and I wear dress- this is not up for debate for those who read my blog that do not know me, thank you)  I found some material and sewed it on the bottom of her shirt and she LOVED it.  She would drive me nuts to wear it daily.  We were washing it nightly.  So I have been busy making her other tshirt dresses!!!


Here are a few more dresses we have made thanks to Aunt C, for all the material....





Here she is helping me ...


I will end w/ my little Moose who is walking all over the place since he was 9months old and his new trick at 11months is to CLIMB on everything. Oh I am in so much trouble, he has NO fear. :^)

Welcome to TN homeschool

Hi and welcome to the Tennessee Homeschool blog at Homeschoolblogger.com. My purpose is to try to help new homeschoolers (and veterans too!) find information on the World Wide Web that can help them with their homeschools.

If you have any specific questions about Homeschooling in Tennessee, please send me an email and I'll see if I can help.

My Purpose

“My purpose is that they may be encouraged in heart and united in love, so that they may have the full riches of complete understanding, in order that they may know the mystery of God, namely, Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.” (Col. 2:2,3)
