Heb. 4:12

When under trial, let no one say: “I am being tried by God.” For with evil things God cannot be tried nor does he himself try anyone.
- James 1:13

Bread Photos

Ok, so in my last post, I said I would post a pic of our Pumpkin bread.

Well, that day, I made what turned out to be Persimmon/Pumpkin bread.

#1 Son labeled it Per­sump­kin bread.  Clever, Right?

Any­way, the bread was sooooooooo good that we for­got to take a pic­ture. (insert blush­ing face here)

I’m slowly learn­ing my camera’s fea­tures. I […]

Another Week has come and gone

This week started rather slowly.  The Prin­ci­pal of our school, AKA “Daddy” was home for the day, so it made school almost impossible.

We unschooled that day.

We had fun with our Art Study.  We’re fin­ish­ing up our study of Mary Cas­satt, and, well, I was inspired to do some­thing… well… interesting.

I picked a handful […]

PE?">Homeschoolers do PE?

After read­ing Barb’s moti­vat­ing post about how she imple­mented PE into the home­school­ing sched­ule, I set out on a search to find some­thing we could do!

I found this — HomeschoolingPE.com!!

Hoorah!  I’m so excited.  This is awe­some! This is put together in such a way that even I think I can han­dle it.  One activ­ity a day, […]

We’re turning into Knit Wits!!!

For those of you who may have fol­lowed my cro­chet blog, (which was recently merged with this one), you know my plight about learn­ing to knit.

Well, Flower Picker has been pre­tend­ing to knit with two pen­cils… no yarn — she’s just rub­bing two pen­cils together at the tips. :-{

So, I decided that would be our hand­i­craft for […]

It’s Fall, Y’all!

I didn’t get to post last week.  We were a wee bit busy, but we had a good week.

I’m glad to say, that after count­less attempts to track down the elu­sive cat­tail, we found them!  Of course, after we jour­neyed to pho­to­graph and sketch them, a friend of mine informed me that there are cat­tails in […]
