Where has this year gone??  I have been very negligent in my blogging, so a new month is the perfect time to recommit.  So much has been going on here, between school, the new grandbaby, our impending new addition..........I will be working dilligently to catch you all up this month. 

Thursdays as you know are our co-op day.  First is our history/ science co-op with one other family, and then our large community co-op in the afternoon.  I had one of those moments today that I was very grateful for the resources we have available to us.  I was not having a good day, I think I overdid it last night walking the kids around trick or treating, so I was very sore.  The other mother in our morning co-op has come down with a cold and hadn't slept well.  Our co-op may not have been as energetic as usual, but we persevered and tackled one more unit of history and science.  I know that had it not been for the co-op, both families likely would not have accomplished those subjects this week.  There is indeed strength in numbers!

The afternoon co-op only has 2 weeks left of the fall session, which I am also grateful for.  I am teaching 2 hours this session, and now that I am 5 weeks away from delivery, I am tired!  It is time for me to finish up some things at home and put my feet up. 

The kids have been extra tired today after Halloween, so Jayson and Dalton went to bed early.  Landon is still up since he had an extra long nap after co-op, which is fine since we are waiting for Phoenix to be picked up for the night.   Allyson had rehearsal for childrens theater (she is playing Peppermint Patty in "You're a good man Charlie Brown") so she has only been home about a half hour. 

I have a ton of pictures to post, plus field trip reports and baby updates, so check back soon and get caught up with me!
