Our Week with New Friends


It must be summer, the weeks are flying by!  I can't believe June is almost over already.


Nothing much in the way of homeschool this week.  Eli finished up a painting he's been working on.


And then decided to add just a little bit more to it.


In other news, we have a couple of little ones staying with us right now.  It's been fun and chaotic, hence the lack of pictures this week.


I got the button sorting tray out for Katie again.


The openings are cut so that the buttons will barely fit in, making this a good fine motor skills activity for her.

Paul spent 4 days in Wisconsin checking out the new fire truck being built for his department.

Hannah had her last day of school today, and I filled out the disenrollment form when I dropped her off this morning, so she's my student now.  I'm super glad she doesn't head back to school July 14, like the rest of her class does.  Not much of a summer break.

Jack and Eli went to the dentist this week.  I like to think having the little ones hasn't affected me too much, but I almost left Eli there, so I may be kidding myself.

In other news, our new refrigerator should be coming this week!  Exciting!

  1. Lots going on in your world. Summer does go by so fast. We only have 3 to 4 weeks left. I can't believe it.
    Blessings, Dawn

    1. Oh, wow, I miss the days when school didn't start until September! My high school kids go back the end of August.

    1. The containers we used are The First Years, but you could use recycled containers just as easily. :)
