Too blessed to be stressed!

Doing what I love! Homeschooling, taking care of my children and coming up with money making/money saving ideas...
Last week we went on our first field trip since being back (Free). We drove up to the state capital and attended Bug Mania. Kids love it! They were all too excited to see Goliath Bird eating spiders and creepy crawlies with 120 legs. Yuck!
Your eyes have not deceived you, he is holding it...



Ok, so it wasn't all disgusting. We did get to see some beautiful butterflies, ladybugs and moths. 




Two days after the field trip we attended our homeschool co-op with over 25 families. After a couple of hours of getting to know each other, we had a delicious pot luck lunch and ran through what a typical co-op day would look like. I think that we are going to have a great time there. 
Here is a sample of some of the talent at the co-op...I totally thought that this was really a basket, but I ate that chocolate, vanilla and red velvet cake like it was nobody's business. : )

I think that we are settling into our routine. Justin my 8 year old has started soccer, a game he fell in love with in Nicaragua. Asia and Kris has auditioned for roles in the upcoming Christmas play at church and the rest of us are just going to sit back and look pretty. (smile)


more to come...
