This was our last week of school! We are now taking the month of July off! Did you hear my kids screaming on Friday afternoon? You may have also heard my incredibly big sigh of relief. lol I prefer year round schooling, but we all really need this break.
The kids will still be reading their Bibles. I know some of them have plans for books they want to read. I know that they will be spending a large amount of time using electronics and swimming in the pool. We will also be testing a few review items.
Me? My July to-do list is even longer than my regular one. I sure hope I can get even a fraction of it done.
I wanted to get a last day of school picture, but that never happened. They were thinking of crazy pictures they could pose for. lol And we just never got to the actual picture. lol
Here are a few pictures from this week:
Abigail loves Pinterest. Ok, I do to, but she spends more time on it than I do. lol She found a pair of homemade flip flops so she made some!
They are made from braided knit material. She used an old t-shirt. After she made that pair, she decided to design her own pair.
They came out great, and are more comfortable than the plastic version.
I always try to take pictures of the crazy positions that my kids get into while doing their schoolwork. Here’s Hannah laying on the couch doing her Kentucky State History on the computer.
I would not find that comfortable in the least, but she does.
I’ll be back next week to let you know how our first week of vacation went!
