Day 15

• We got our school work done right at noon today.
• I made a stew for supper that I thought was rather good but the kids thought it was nasty.
• It was a hot and humid day today. Another day to be thankful for AC.
  
• I cut out a dress for Heidi today.
• I stood out in the front yard visiting with my neighbor after supper while our kids ran around in the yard.
• I made a bow for Lars out of a branch from the crepe myrtle and a piece of yarn. The kids thought it was so cool. He stood around trying to get it to work for the longest time.
  

Day 14

• We had to make a couple runs to the pharmacy to get my prescription taken care of. It has changed so I have to take a different does every other day. I'm glad. I was thinking it was too high but not sure. But my LAB work said it was so now I don't doubt.
• Went to church again tonight, This time we all went to our own classes and we all enjoyed them.
• Lars was telling about the video he watched in class. He said, "...and they walked, no, they bounced..." So, can you guess what kind of video he was watching?
• I made some bread today. We enjoyed some of it fresh with butter and honey.
• It rained again today. I have more wet laundry to do. This afternoon it kind of surprised me because it was very bright and sunny but it started showering very heavily.
• We ate supper at church.
• That is all. good night.
  

Day 13

• I made Apple cake in an iron skillet Today. So very yummy. But, if you make it do follow Keren's advice and use only 1 stick of butter in the first part of the recipe. I did, and I was not sorry.
• It was a rainy day. Made us really need our naps this afternoon. It was very nice to have rain though. We've been having gray days a lot lately and it is much nicer to have rain with the clouds. In my opinion.
• The kids went out and played in the rain off and on today. They were collecting rain water in buckets and cups.
  
• We did our school work in very good time.
• My arm and finger are still sore from using the spray paint for Lars' bike. I find it kind of funny while it is annoying.

I better get these kids to bed.

Days 11 and 12

I forgot to blog last night until I was done reading and had turned the lights out. I did not feel like getting out of bed and turning the computer back on.

Yesterday;

• We walked to church. We all enjoyed that a lot. We saw two of our friends drive by while we were walking and that was very fun too. It took not quite 10 min.
• We spent a very lazy afternoon.
• In the evening we went over to the neighbors and the kids played.

Today;

• We did vary little school work.
• We went to Aldi and Wal-mart before lunch.
• We went to the Commissary before supper.
• last night our fish died. he died of lack of care.
  
• We had taco salad for supper.

Other things happened I'm sure. :/

Bikes

since I took a picture of Lars with his bike the girls needed pictures of them with their bikes.

Day 10

Today was kind of an odd day. I thought about northern MN a lot.

• We turned an old little girls bike into a boys bike today. It still has white tires but some things can't be helped. The other thing that is a problem is that I am really bad at spray painting. :) It was fun to do.
• Worked on the rag rug again today. Oh, and no I don't have a pattern I just started crocheting around in circles. I should have used a pattern and I should have redone some of it because it has some really bad looking spots. But I am too lazy.
• I tried to sleep in because three kids kept taking turns coming into my room with complaints all night long. But they were up and raring to go bright and early. oh well, I really haven't been tired today.
• The kids went outside right after breakfast this morning and did not come back in until I called them in at 3 pm. They went back out right after naps too.
• I had the kids pose for some pictures this afternoon. I had been looking at some other peoples posed pictures and thought I should get some of my kids because it has been a long time since we did any kind of portraits.
• I've been pre-reading some of our school books for this year. they are some really good books. They are Sonlights Core 1 books.
  

Day 9

• I mowed the grass again today. only in the front yard this time. I really don't like my grass because it is not thick and it sends up really tall seed things really fast but the rest of the grass doesn't grow very fast at all. Feels like a waste of time to be running back in forth to cut every 10th grass blade.
  
• I think I'm a little bit grumpy tonight. sorry about that little rant.
• Started working on a rag rug again. I am making it out of old t-shirts. I am using whatever color happens to come next so it is getting a farm house look to it. kind of fun.
  
• We used our new school room table today for school. It was very nice. We ate in the dinning room and did school work in the school room amazing really.
