Well, it’s not really accurate to call this post Our Homeschool Week in Review. Since it’s been a couple of months since I’ve posted!
Quite a few things have happened since I last posted. I decided to rearrange the schoolroom. What a project that was!
I am still in the process of going through books and curriculum to get rid of. The books we are keeping are back on the shelves, so the room doesn’t look like this picture anymore. There are boxes of books now. All to be sold, or given away, very shortly.
We emptied out our craft room, and moved the contents to another room. We decided that we just had to get rid of most of these trophies. All eight of us have won trophies, and we have just run out of room for them all. There are actually a few trophies, like 20ish, that didn’t make it out here for the picture and sorting. We let the kids decide if they wanted to keep any of their trophies. Some did, some didn’t. My husband and I got rid of all of ours, but we kept the plaques.
Most of these trophies pictured were for model car shows. Some in my husbands pile were for real car shows. We did find a way to preserve the spirit of the trophies, without taking up as much room. I’ll share that at a later date.
Hannah finally got her license! She really didn’t care if she got it or not. lol She didn’t plan for her shirt to match the photo background. lol
Our youngest daughter, 16, left in June for a summer mission trip. I will share at the end of the summer who she went with and where she went. I did get one phone call from her, and a few letters. She seems to be doing well, and working hard. In the beginning, she did say she was experiencing some major home and church sickness. She seems to have adjusted a little better now.
I shared about my mother’s emotions missing my children yesterday.
Zach has been going to 4-H archery every other week all summer. They keep going until September. He just got back yesterday for a 4 day, 3 night kung fu camp that his kung fu instructor put on. He got some nice one on one training in, too. He leaves on Monday for church camp, and won’t be home until Friday afternoon.
Camps are keeping him busy this summer. That and video games. lol
