We had a really good week, in spite of the fact that hubby had to have two wisdom teeth removed. He is feeling less pain today and the swelling has decreased, but now he is nauseated due to medication. We would appreciate prayers that he would be completely well soon. Thanks! So, what else is going on? Last night I attended my...gulp...20th year high school reunion. It was lots of fun reconnecting with my classmates. I am glad that I was able to attend. I did a little crafting for Halloween this week with pumpkins, which was a lot of fun. As far as school goes, Doodles started her study of ancient Rome, Bug studied deserts and rain forests, and Baby Girl continued working on writing lines and improving communication skills, along with her favorite part of each day - Circle Time. For my homeschool co-op Five in a Row class, we read
How to Make an Apple Pie and See the World. The kids really enjoyed it. We made apple prints, ate apple pie, and had apple relay races. It was a blast! Here's a look into our week:
