We have had a great start to our summer!!!!
We actually went camping! That was huge, since we have never been as a family. It was a blast!! We're already looking forward to the next camping trip. Superdad was able to take a whole week off & we had such a great time hanging out with him! We went to the park several times, camping (as I mentioned) and we played miniature golf. We're planning to go swimming, bowling and to the library as well next week. We are certainly staying busy!!!!
My 2yo's favorite words are: Park, Camping & Bowling. He repeats these words over and over and over at least several times every single day. He's so funny!
As for "school" time stuff, we are doing a few things here and there just to keep our brains from going to mush. We are trying to stay consistent meeting for "together time" each day. We're basically just praying together & doing a bible study called Sword Fighting. The book is no longer available, which is too bad because it's been one of my kids favorite! You basically memorize a scripture to use as a "sword" in your every day life. Each day you read a bible story of someone who struggled or succeeded in the temptation you are studying. Then there is an activity you can do as well. You have a "sword fight" regularly by asking them... "you are tempted to-----" then they reply with a scripture to combat the temptation. Really cool!
Also, we are doing some math. That's pretty much it. It's been too busy to try to do anything else right now. Maybe later in the summer I'll add in some fun studies, but for now I just throw in a little math here and there (sort of as a "chore"), and I haven't really had any complaints so far.
Just thought I'd check in. We're going to be busy until the end of July. I'll probably get back to you at the beginning of Aug. Which is when we should be starting school back up again. I have a feeling we might have some trouble getting back to normal when the time comes.......
see you then!
