It's really been Christmas at our house this week. Why? Well, all of our curriculum and extra books arrived. We've spent a few days unpacking things, getting them situated on our school shelves, hanging maps, packing up last year's work and just plain getting excited. It's so fun to open boxes of new books, fresh clean workbooks, art prints, science supplies, maps, CDs. Just yummy! We're so excited that we're just going to go ahead and start. So, school starts this coming Monday, August 4th for us. I had planned to wait until after the Dormition Fast, but my oldest really wants to get started. How can I tell him no? He's working a deal that if he starts now, he can get three or four weeks off at Christmas. Fine with me, since I need the time off then more than now.
The down side? I still wanted to blog about lots of the fun things we did last year. It will still probably happen, but it will need to trickle in as we get started on this year. So, here we go!
