Ok so we are officially finished with home school this year. I feel such accomplishment and am so proud of Brenden and Tayler. Right now the plan is for us to continue and home school again next year. We have been really busy the last couple of weeks. Our family is actually in Laurel, MS at the moment. Josh is here on business, so the kids and I came down to hang out. We have been to the pool this morning. For lunch we went to a neat pizza place called Eat a Pizza. It was like a miniature Chucky Cheese Joshua won 224 tickets! They had a ball. Afterwards we went to Landrums Country Homestead Village. http://www.landrumscountry.com/
I had no idea it was even here and only 10 minutes from the hotel. This was such a blessing, Brenden and I learned about so many of these things from American History this year. I have tons of pics and will post them when I get home and back to my PC. We hope to go to an art museum tom. I will be praying fervently that Joshua does well there, we shall see. We also hope to go to a water park on our way home and are looking forward to that.
Monday we are off to GA until Friday I cant wait other minus the drive. We haven't been back since November! The kids and I will stay at my mom and dads, this will be a first staying there with all 3 kiddos. My moms house isn't exactly kid friendly she has so many antiques. They do have a pool and that will keep them busy most of the time, and outside! :)
Back at the home front we just purchased an antique John Deer zero turn lawn mower(looks like one anyway). It does cut the grass really well though! It will really help me with keeping the yard cut. Yes I cut the grass, and enjoy it. Josh is out of town so much and 5 acres can get out of hand in a hurry.
We have finally finished furnishing Tayler Rayns' girly room. We found a whole bedroom suite on Craigslist for $350 and you can barely buy a good mattress set for $200 so we decided to buy it. It looks exactly like the same furniture that I got when I was a little girl only a smaller version. It was a shock to find it, and I was super excited! I prayed that if it was meant for her God would work out the details and he did. A woman called and asked the man to hold it the day before I emailed him. And then called the next day to tell him she changed her mind. Proof that God answers even "small prayers". The best part is praying and leaving it in his hands and being satisfied with the results. If it isn't in his will it wont happen! I still need to decorate a little, but that will come in time. Pics of that to come when we get home also.
Well I am off for now to get ready for dinner with Josh. I cant tell you how happy I am to be able to spend some time with him, and have a break from Grenada!
