Cub Scout Pinewood Derby

A good time was had by all! Joshua took second place in his den, while Daddy and Andrew participated *after* the cub scouts were finished.

Fourth Grade WinterPromise LA

Another homeschooling mom asked me to scout this LA program for her. The photos are a bit blurry, but you can use the magnifying glass option to get a closer look.

I especially like the creative writing exercises. There was no 4th grade spelling book to preview, so I took pics of the 3rd grade one. There are samples of SpellWell C and CC available at Christian Book Distributors (cbd.com) and Rainbow Resource (rainbowresource.com) I think.

Belated Christmas Slide Show

Here you go! Location: Louisiana at John's parents' home. Also present: John's brother Stephen and his wife Esther with 1yo Jonathan.

It's A BOY!

After 20 weeks of suspense, we now know who will be joining us in late May or early June (this ultrasound puts my dates later). We don't yet know his name, but we know he is a bouncing baby boy.

We are looking forward to spending time getting to know this new little man God is sending to our home.

How fun for his older brothers to teach him all their tricks!

Andrew's 4th Birthday Party

 

A good time was had by all! We shared a party with my nephew Jeremiah, who is turning six on Thursday. We had chicken barley soup, chili, cornbread, rolls, salad and chips for lunch, then cake and ice cream after presents. What a cutie!

Frazier International History Museum

I *finally* uploaded our pics from the field trip we took earlier this month. The museum's Survivor Jamestown interactive exhibit was lots of fun and really tied in with our WinterPromise American Story 1 program. What fun!

Here's a link to the album in case you can't see slide shows:
