We went to see Prince Caspian the other day..it was so good! We loved it!  It is wonderful that they are making the Narnia movies.  I know that they are not as true to the story as they could be, but overall, they have done a good job.  Seeing the movie and then talking to Bryan about the storyline has made me remember the Further Up and Further In curriculum.  I have wanted to use it, but put it off.  I think we will plan on doing the Narnia study next year.  It seems like fun.   Have any of you used it?  What did you think?  Saxon is our choice for math, and we buy the DIVE CD's, which have been a blessing for me!  I am a math illiterate and need all the help I can get in teaching it.  That is far as I have gotten in my choices for 8th grade.  Any suggestions??  I am always open to advice and suggestions.

    Today has been a nice day.  The sun was warm and plentiful, the grass is mowed and so green, (thank you Frank!) and it was good to chat and watch Darth zip and zoom all over the place.  He thinks he is a big dog.  All 4 pounds of him tried to attack a very large black Lab this afternoon!  Thank goodness the Lab did not see Darth as "lunch".  It is nice here at The Cove!

    Bryan had show and Tell today too.  He had fun showing his knife and sword collection.  Everyone was duly impressed. 

    Take care and enjoy the rest of your day.
