A Quick Hello
yes, we're still here! : )
Lately i've been trying to get myself organized for the upcoming school year, while trying to finish up this one. We got such a late start that we are still working .... but that's ok, NC summers are awfully hot and school work keeps us from being indoors with nothing to do in the middle of the day. Mornings after breakfast the kids do head outside for a bit ...and also in the evenings after dinner.
We had a surprise trip to the eastern part of the state recently as my father-in-law ended up in the hospital while at a conference. The kids got to spend the weekend with their cousin (and aunt and uncle) - they enjoyed the visit immensely...i think my brother and his family survived! : )
Now everyone is home and as i said earlier, we are looking toward this new school year...and a new little one who will be here sooner than later!
This year i am trying something new for us, combining grade levels i guess you could say. T and Ladybug are supposedly going to be studying church history together as well as zoology, art and music. Cat and Bear will be doing about the same just at a lower level...except not zoology but physical science montessori style. And they are all doing geography - continent boxes and such if i can get my act together. Oh! And Catechesis of the Good Shepherd.
Unfortunately the printer is out of ink so i an procrastinating.... i need to just do things the old fashioned way and be done with it! Also, i lack any motivation what so ever so things are slow going at the moment. I'd like to start the 15th of August but we shall see....
We are also in the planning stages for 'other stuff' for the new year. FLL/FTC/JrFLL and the homeschool group are our focus it seems ...sports will wait til spring, if we make it that far! : )
The house is coming along, slowly but surely. Eventually pictures may appear here on the blog.
We are awaiting a visit from Great-aunt Pat and Great-uncle Bob, maybe Aunt Monika (if Nina - my mom - can talk her into it. She is going to be in the states for a month and we would love to see her!) and eventually Nina. My mom will come down around the baby's due date ... hopefully. Time will tell. Papa will be home working crowd control, which should be easy seeing as only uncle Mike is still at home! : )
Well, i best run. Have a blessed evening...and thanks for stopping by!

Hello? ... Hello!
No we have not run away... we've been busy, but have thought of writing often. I don't have pictures on the computer at the moment but will post some soon.
We spent the last 2 weekends hanging out with my sister-in-law and nephew....Jen (my sister-in-law) and i went to the County Library System's annual book sale - Sunday is $5 a box (and they are very generous sized boxes!) and $1 a bag. Ah the joy! Jen came away with 3 boxes but i managed more books in my 2. I spent the entire time in the kids books and did pretty well, if i may say so myself. We have decided we will defintitly be returning next year ....only earlier (read that - when they open) on Sunday. Here's hoping the wait to get in is a lot shorter next time!

Welcome
So welcome to Michelle Gorman, Lori, the Fru-"gal", Sandy, guessa!, MT, Kristin George, My Spot!, Kama, Kim, and tree ...as well as all of you who stop in from all around the world, you are not unnoticed - i am amazed at the world traveling my little traffic feed does!
So anyway, welcome to our blog. I hope you will stop in regularly and walk away with even the smallest bit of new information or at least a smile. This blog has a mind of its own, for sure. I write about more than i had planned to and on everything from homeschooling to parenting, feast days to our family life in general.
Please feel free to comment, but also to ask questions. I am always willing to post answers!
And again, Welcome!
