• May. 27, 2007 - What we have been Up to.
It has been way too long since I have blogged! Life has officially gotten very busy for me lately.
I am biding my time until the school year is over. I am really looking forward to summer this year.
A few things we have been up to:
__________________________
We belong to a wonderful homeschooling group called Stepping Stones and we are getting ready to do a play for our end of the year ceremony. We are putting on a production of Robin Hood. Monkey boy is playing the right hand man of Prince John. He is doing very well at his acting. (I knew he would) Action boy is doing props for the play. He prefers to remain behind the scenes:) (like me)
The play is on June 7th.
___________________________
Action boy is playing baseball with Kidsports this year. This is his first time doing any type of sport officially. I think he is getting the hang of it really well. He learns quickly. He always did have a natural ability to throw a ball:) He is attending practices 3X's a week and we have to drive him to and fro. I was hoping for his practices to be withing biking distance but no such luck:) His first game is on June 2nd! I am more nervous than he is.
______________________________
Also in the vein of baseball, I am the team leader for Kidsports coupon books. So I am organizing the boys selling and keeping tabs on their sales, etc. Luckily I don't have to do any selling. Im no good at that:)
Anybody want a coupon book??? ha ha

I have been leading a women's group in my home for the last few months. Once a week we get together and have a worship time and then take some more time to pray for what God puts on our hearts. It's been very nice and also a good time to get to know one another. We are going to be wrapping up next week for summer break.
________________________________
I am also involved with a team from our church that meets twice a month to discuss what God is doing in our midst. That has been a whole new thing for me.

Both of the boys have youth group once a week.
Although Action boy has baseball practice on that night now so he has been going only occasionally after practice.

We are wrapping up our adventures in Narnia in a couple of weeks. It has been a very nice school year with the Further Up and Further In curriculum that we have been using. The boys have thoroughly enjoyed it. I really enjoy 'doing school' based on literature that is so downright FUN!
_______________________________________
Then there is just the regular everyday stuff that we all do (or don't do because we are too busy) like laundry, cleaning house, etc. I have noticed some things begin to slip lately:)
_______________________________
Overall, I'm tired! Thankfully tomorrow is our weekly rest day. It is so wonderful that my husband and I are in agreement about setting aside one day a week to really just rest! It's heaven on earth!!!
