Sunday, May 17, 2009 - Weekly Wrap-up
From the Heart:
I've been rejoicing in the wonder of Spring/Summer. Watching the trees and bushes bud and new leaves come out. Planting spring flowers and finding Rasberry bushes that come up as shoots from my neighbors bushes. I've looking forward to hikes, walks on the beach. fresh fish, berries and vegetables from my garden. I love winter, really I do or I would not love Alaska so much, but I also love the promise of spring and summer days.
On the Homefront:
I'm not sure what happened to my spring cleaning plans. Well that is not true. I know exactly what happened----I'm taking the day off for weather. Now for you who do not live in Juneau I'll translate. It is way to pretty outside, so I'm taking the day off. We have enjoyed quite a few sunny days for the Alaskan Rainforest. It is hard to want to be inside when I can be outside and working on my gardening project. Our world is coming to life and we are getting so excited about our first Juneau summer.
In the Schoolroom:
We are close to finishing up Sonlight Core 2. David is finishing up Math and working on Grammer. Rachel is still working on Math. We are studying animals and should be finishing that up this month. We are spending lots of time outside working in the yard and just enjoying the warmer weather.
In the Literary Scene:
I've been distracted by all the warm weather and have not read much this week, but that is what winter is for, right. I am still working on The Real George Washington. I'm reading aloud to the kids And the Word came with Power.
From the Garden:
The whole family has been busy outside this week. We have made two raised beds and have quite a few pots ready to plant. We also have some berry bushes to plant. Up to this point most of it has been prep work ( for the veggies and such.) I also have flowers out front in pots and Chris is almost finished with our new border with leftover stone from the veggie beds.
Just for Fun:
Most of our fun has been going to all the local greenhouses and picking our plants. Are you seeing a pattern here? I can have a one track mind.
