Little Finish

The theme for the ILCS August Block Swap was Fun in the Sun. Doesn't this just scream fun to you. Relaxing! I really enjoyed it. My hubby got a big kick out of it one spot. I had just one tree and the hamock done. He happened to see it and said Wow Hon you are defying gravity there. He said I should leave it and see what people say. What a goof.

We started 5th grade on Monday. Today was day 2. So far so good LOL.

Update

We had our HUGE geocaching camping weekend. It was called Midwest Geobash and boy did we bash. We went up to help out Wednesday nite. This year we volunteered. It's a HUGE job. There were probably around 2,000 there some time over the weekend. Fred had to work Thursday so we went up after he got off work. It was a blast! You never know how many great friends you have till they are all together in one spot. The picture above is our little pirate Jeremiah. He came up during the day to hang out. He had to come home at nite though with mom. It gets a little rowdy. We have an adult area called Area 51. By the morning we all forget what happened LOL. Mom said to someone we did a lot of bending of the elbows which I thought was a cute way to describe it. We came home Sunday and I swear I'm just now getting rested. It takes a lot out of you to camp. Which is funny cause it's relaxing while you're there.

Monday we start Jeremiah's home school. Been spending this week getting organized. Put 4th grade books away. Got out 5th grade. Can you believe that?? 5th Grade!! We are finally ready. Actually we are both getting excited too. His math this year is on the computer. Can't wait to see how that works. It takes up our time but we are glad to be back at it. Even though it means less Playstation time for j and less stitching time for me haha.
