Our Homeschool Week in Review

We’ve had a revival all week at church. It sure makes for a very busy week! So in addition to the family being at church every night, the girls had a volleyball game on Tuesday. Unfortunately, they lost. They have another game tomorrow. There was no revival tonight, so the youth had their normal Friday night movie complete with hot dogs and popcorn. Revival picks up again tomorrow night. Thankfully, the girls volleyball game is in the afternoon, so it doesn’t conflict with church.

Hannah finally finished her riding skirt this week. It’s a split skirt that buttons in the front. When you want to ride, you unbutton it. It came out great! Here it is from the front.

Here it is from the back. The wind was blowing so it made picture taking hard, but you can tell that it looks like culottes from the back.

Here’s the pattern she used. 1901 Split Skirt Pattern (affiliate link) She used a lightweight cotton fabric for this skirt. It does get hot in Kentucky in the summer! I think later on, she’ll made another one or two out of different fabrics.

In other homeschool happenings, the missing math book was found. Saxon 8/7.  I’m happier about it than she is. lol All the schoolwork actually went pretty smoothly this week. I think it’s because all the kids were healthy. Hopefully, we’re done with all the virus’s for the winter!
