Blue Ribbon! |
Let me explain. There hasn't been school in almost a week. Last day we had school was last Wednesday. It's Monday. No one is in school. Last Thursday we awoke to a 5:30 AM phone call explaining that unexpected snow overnight had canceled school (we got a total of about 3" of white powdery fluff). Yay, we all needed a break and the kids got a day of playing in the "snow".
Bed Head for B Box Workshop |
Over the weekend we crammed all the canceled events from Thurs and Friday and also the regularly scheduled activities. Therefore on Saturday we had 1 basketball game, 1 very quick trip to the gym, several hours at the 4H talent show judging -- all while T was teaching a homebrewing class so I was flying solo. Sunday we had a children's led church service, 4H talent show family performance, 2 Black Box rehearsals and homework to review since it had been 4 days since anyone had been to school. (Erin did win a blue ribbon for her song at the talent show though!)
After spending what felt like hours reviewing spelling words and Jamestown SOL facts, homework was finished. Showers were taken (notice the Bed Heads as part of the workshop Sunday night, Erin had almost a 1/2 can of hairspray in there). Everyone was tucked in and asleep by 9:30 -- a minor miracle.

Painting His Tile |
It is now sunny blue skies, and it's supposed to be 60 tomorrow. Erin is practicing piano (hey we got music in today) and Jeff is messing with the computer (look Computers!). Methinks we might have school tomorrow. They'd better not give me any lip about it.
