November update

Actually November was a good school month. They all worked very hard and I kept on track with C. His reading progress it going very well. He has finished a couple of his workbooks earlier than planned because he loves to keep working in them.

We took most of the week of Thanksgiving off and that helped me since I had to prepare two Thanksgiving meals that week. One for us and one for Chuck and Hazel to take to WV. They appreciated the meal.

I am scaling back on videos/movies that the kids watch during the week and they are playing so well together. Of course they have their moments but for their age they play great together. I love having the two little ones in the house. As I type they are running around the house playing with each other.

December will probably be a short month. I think we will take the week of Christmas off but I will still do phonics with C.

We are reading our advent story every night. Advent started Sunday Nov. 28. We are reading Tabitha's Travels by Arnold Ytreeide. You can look at the books here. We enjoy slowing down in the Advent season and reading together every night.

We will do the lights at the Raceway one night before Christmas too.

I love Christmas  and the season and all that goes with it. I love buying gifts for others.

Well since this has gotten off school and onto other stuff I will leave for now. Hoping to be back soon.
