Almost There…….
Wow, what a day! Today as I a woke from a slumber that was not long enough and drug myself out of bed, I realized that today was going to be another busy day! Such is my life and I do love it yet there are some days when I just would like a day off to sleep and rejouvenate!
Today my baby is now 6 months old! Where has the time gone? Busyness seems to steal the hours, days, weeks, and months away. I am rejoicing that my little lady is so healthy and doing new things each and every day and a little saddened that she is not going to be little and cuddly for too much longer.
We are in the home stretch with school right now and trying like mad to get finished. We do not want to spend our long summer days indoors with the books when we could be out enjoying Alaska. We should be finished by the end of May except for the older two children who will only have one subject left. We have one more piano lesson and a recital this weekend then we will break for the summer.
My hubby comes home this weekend and we are so anxious to see him! It has been a long 5 weeks! Which leads me to all of the projects that I wanted to get accomplished before his plane arrives. Well…….by the end of today, the list will be mostly complete! There are a few extra things that I have added to the list so that will make up for the one or two that I have just decided not to worry about. Please pray for me today that I can clean off this plate of mine. Then I can relax a little before hubby arrives. I do not want to be a frazzled mess when he come home!
I know blogging has been sporatic as of late but I am busy, the weather is AMAZING, and the sunshine lasts, and last, and lasts, so to be perfectly honest……..I would rather be outside with my family than strapped to my computer.
So, are you all geared up for the summer? Are you finished with school? What is on your projects list??? Or am I just the only one who is crazy busy???

Good for you on getting so much done! We are outside a lot now also. We’ll have to hid in the house again once we start hitting 100 everyday but for now, the weather is gorgeous!

Good for you. I read all that was on your plate and you completed it. How wonderful. I hope you have a great reunion with your dh. As for our summer, piano continues but the recital is over. We do have Christie’s voice recital tomorrow which I hope to post on my blog by the weekend. As far as school goes, well, our summer will have some books in it still. You have a great week.

Hi there! We’re thankful for all this beautiful weather. Our big plans mostly center around the theme of “find a lake to throw rocks into” or “find a river to play next to” or “find a slab of concrete to ride our bikes on.”
All our commitments are ending for the school year at church and I am planning what to do for summer school. Still hoping you and I can get together soon!

Our summer plans are more mundane-canning peaches and tomatoes and that sort of thing. We pretty much school all year. It helps me to be less stressed out during the school yeaar if we miss. And the kids just seem more settled when we stay on schedule.
I’m kind of wondering though if we might have a church connection. My church is a member of the CREC (I saw you have them on your links) and our pastors go up to Alaska from time to time to help with a new CREC church starting there. Could that be your church? Just curious.

I have a baby close to your little ones age.
Good job on getting your tasks completed. I’m not homeschooling yet so summer, winter, spring, fall are all the same for me. I have 2 kids and my oldest is only 2 and a half.
As long as it is decently warm and there isn’t any snow on the ground, I try to get outside a lot more though
