Its been since May since my last entry.  We moved to a house since then!  ITs fantastic!  Lots of room.  The kids each have there own room. 

     Its been a busy busy summer.  The kids had camp.  My 12 year had his 1st year in Youth Camp.  He loved it and cant wait until next summer.  A week after he had camp my 10 yr old and 6 year old had camp (Camp Frog) I was a camp councilor and My 12 year old was Jr camp councilor for the boys cabin.  We all had a blast. 

     Our church has started a new thing where the parents take turns with the kids while the rest go out for a date.  We do that twice a month.  Its been so wonderful to reconnect with my husband.  Our turn is coming up Sept 22. 

     We have a puppy now(not sure if i mentioned that before) He is sooo cute.  His name is Mr. Tumnus.  And we have a kitten name Aslan.  They are the best of buds.  Both were born in March so they will grow up together. 

      I have been busy buying books for the kids for the new "school year".  I am so excited about this year.   I guess I can share what I am doing this year for the kids.

Zach is 12 and in 7th.  I asked him what he wanted to use this year and he chose Abeka.  He loves it.  Not so sure I would have at his age but he loves it and does well with it.  For Language Arts/Literature we are using Learning Language Arts Through Literature.  I am using that for all three.  Jacob is 10 hes not on a specific grade level.  He is using Saxon 6/5.  And the yellow book for LLATL.   And Abeka Science and History.  Sarah is 6 soon to 7 and shes in 2nd.  Im using the red books for LLATL and Abeka Math, Science and History, Health.  I am still praying about what to use for Bible Devotions.   I am leaning towards CLP.  We shall see how things go this year and adjust where things need adjustment.  I am never locked into anything.  I just use what the kids are going at a regular pace with and if they are struggling or getting too frustrated or even bored with something I am willing to rethink things.  I got most of the books through Ebay!  What a wonderful resource.  It saved me soooo soo much money.  I didn't have too much money this year for books.  We are going to start school Sept 4.  (i know its Labor Day..I will make sure they know what that means..LOL)  Well I think I have my blog up to date now.  I hope it isnt too long before I blog again.  I just get soo busy as Im sure many of you do.  Well Have a blessed Day!!  Sorry this is so long.
