Library Day
Wednesday is Paul's day off, so we have made it a habit to go to the library every Wednesday.  Our new library is so big and beautiful, we absolutely love it.  There is a park right outside, so we pack a picnic and make a whole day of it.  The kids like to play on the computers so I let them do that and also pick out some books and movies.  While they are occupied I get to pick out some books for me or for our school unit.  I also really enjoy reading the magazines.  I canceled all of my magazine subscriptions, but now I can read them all there and jot down any cool recipes or ideas I find, and I don't have any cost or clutter!  We each have our own cards and we can check out 30 items each.  Sadly, we usually are all close to maxed out.  Every time we go someone makes a comment like, "whoa that's a lot of books" or "wow, you guys really like the library".  We do love it!

I never even thought to look for the mags I like at the library. I'll have to check next time I go in.

We love the library too! It's funny that you said you canceled your magazine subscriptions because you can just read them at the library, me too. Also our library sells the past issues for .25 cents so when I see one that I really like, I just buy it :-). Yes, I believe in taking full advantage of what's free and cheap! LoL!
I hope you're having a great week!
Blessings, Julie

My kids father works as a truck driver and we are unable to visit the library as frequently as I would like to. With 2 year old twin boys, it is just not an ideal situation. You are VERY lucky to be able to do this!
I am looking forward to your support as we start our journey as homeschoolers!
