It is Friday, August 17th and we are now down to the wire! I just got home from Michael's because I am a craft person and love crafts sooooo I bought some items we need to do the activities next week. Let's double check!
Foam board or something sturdy for the salt dough map
paint to paint it next week OR Call Lisa and tell her you would like to use some of her paints.
Flour
Salt
toothpicks
Can someone bring extra toothpicks in case I forget to get them? I have shopped four or five times and still can't remember toothpicks!
I also checked out the other activities for the week and we are doing a few others on our own. Sarah is going to make a paddle doll (LG) and the other two are making a necklace or bracelet with sculpey.
I got the books from the library that we are borrowing on Thursday.
By the way, BVHeroes (a homeschool group in De.) is having a mini homeschool convention/curriculum sale on Sunday night Aug. 19th. It is from 6:00 to 9:00 at the Community Center in front of Target on 202, right off of rte 1. I think there will be encouragement seminars as well as used curriculum tables.
I know Lisa and I will be there and Laura if she still wants to do it when she gets home from her vacation. I haven't heard from her so I haven't had a chance to tell her.
Anyway, let's continue to pray this weekend for each other and our awesome privilege to home school. I pray we all get off to a wonderful start.

Thanks Linda! Sure wish I had a child who enjoyed crafts because I love them. Oh well, I can appreciate the things he does like: music, robotics, etc.
I do have plenty of powdered tempra paint if anyone wants to use iy I will have one of the boys check it on Monday or Tuesday to make sure it is still good. If it is, I am more than willing to share.
It's hard to believe that I am starting high school with my youngest child and that two have graduated and are moving on. I never intended to homeschool this long, but took it one year at a time. But, by God's grace and depedence on him for strength and wisdom, we have made through.
Linda,
Wow!! Good job! I am so impressed.
Love,
Laura
