May. 12, 2009 - Winding down

How’s your end of the school year going?  We’re winding down but not fast enough for my liking.  Some years it seems like no big deal and other years we’re just ready to be done!  This is one of those we’re just “waiting” to finish.

Part of the problem is we tackled a very difficult book for the end of the year and it really seems to be draining us (it’s Pilgrims Progress but more on that in another blog…)

Activities are coming to an end which is good.  We had our talent show last week (which is the end of band), and our History Fair last month.  The kids didn’t do Spring sports this year which was VERY nice!  Awana ended last week too.  I think summer really will get here!

The Band pictures turned out really dark (they always seem to at the church we use for that) and the Awana award pictures not so good either so I’ll post a couple from the science fair/derby.<>

In the picture with the three boys, my Taylor's the one on the left but I put the one with his friends in because it's so cute.  They are sure growing up.  My oldest didn't do a fair project or car, he was working (refereeing soccer.)  Time flies...

Hope the rest of the schoolwork  flies!  We should be done May 20th.  Then we'll have to do something fun on the 21st to celebrate!
