November 9, 2009...

Outside my window...
It a beautiful morning! I'm greeted with sunlight reflecting off the snow on the mountaintops. Seeing the sun can be such a rare treat this time of year.

I am thinking...
of tons of things I need to do in the house this week.

I am thankful for...
Sunlight and Chris being back on day shift this week.

From the learning rooms...
We are reading (or listening to CD's which is a nice break for me) to Johnny Tremain. We are learning about the early colonial period before the American Revolution. Rachel and David are busy with piano, math, reading (although they have finished all of the Sonlight readers) and Aaron is busy on his workbooks. We are also learning about birds in Science.

From the kitchen...
Homemade Hamburger Helper, I have not decided which kind.

I am wearing...
PJ's

I am going...
to stay home today. Chris is off work, but needs to be working on his class. We will be going to a Boy Scout Event tonight.

I am creating...
??
I am reading...
We are finishing up the Narnia books this week. I have tons of books on my night stand, but I have not touched them in awhile. I have been enjoying reading the Narnia books and some magazines (This Old School House and Answers in Genesis.)

I am hoping...
the sun says around for awhile so that we can enjoy it today.

I am hearing...
the sounds of the keyboard when the kids have headphones plugged in. I need to listen to them play today. I love the headphones! They can practice without disturbing anyone---like while the others are doing other schoolwork, but I don't always hear the progress they are making.

One of my favorite things...
are winter mornings. I love watching the fire in our pellet stove and snuggling up on the couch a blanket and a book.

A few plans for the rest of the week:
Boy Scout Court of Honor tonight, Piano Lessons and any errands I have on Tuesday and not sure about the rest of the week.

Oh, I haven't kept up with mine well either. If I do an entry a month, I feel lucky!

One thing I did start doing was telling Facebook to publish when I've added an entry.

Saturday, November 14, 2009 - I really enjoyed Johnny Tremain.

I read it myself and enjoyed it so much. It is one we didn't get to as a family though. We should do it on tape (maybe if we ever do a long trip like to Alaska...!)

Anyway, I'm glad to see your update!
