Well my blogging has been lacking for a while. I got in a weird funk around September last year....and I'm still working my out of it. I would start to blog and just quit with nothing to show for it. I started this blog as somewhat of a journal slash scrapbook. So much for those few months...I've got alot of catching up to do (with the scrap booking part, that is). So where do I begin? I think I'll just start with January, where the new year begins. What a month this has been. We have had just about every sickness you can think of. It started on January 6th with Dave. He had a sinus infection. Then Samuel, Erin, and Abby came down with a stomach virus....Dave and I both followed shortly afterwards. Then Samuel had Pneumonia, Abby had a sinus infection, Erin had the swine flu....all the while I was having a really bad cold. We all were just about well, when I got another stomach virus. To say the least we are ready for some warm weather!!! Ready to get out of this house and feel some sunshine on my face!
School is going really well. There is just always alot to do! I never feel adequate to teach math. At this point I can still do the math (4th grade). I'm sure we will need a tutor in a few years. Dave is teaching Latin to the girls. He says they are doing really well. I can tell it's helping them with their English work also. Even on the hard days, I still love homeschooling.
OK....something fun. Dave and I are going to Hawaii. YAY!!!!! I am so excited. Well, I am getting excited. We are going with the band and choir students. I've been checking out what to take, what the temp will be, stuff like that. It is like 80 degrees there all year long. How cool is that? I'm sure I'll have more to say about that later. :)
