Weekly Wrap Up


Happy November! 

Only a few more weeks left of 2015 - can you believe it?

Halloween weekend was perfect weather and lots of ghoulish fun!  We had another homeschooling family over for a little HomeGhoul Halloween Party.  Always a fun time! 

We trick or treated with friends after we went to the Halloween Haunted House at Sammie's martial arts school. 


People in our area really do it up right!
We really did not have too much "book work" this week and it was a nice break...
The weather was unseasonably warm this week here in NY and we took advantage of that by going to the beach/lake for the afternoon on Tuesday. 


We found so many animal prints in the sand on Tuesday.  From horse prints to deer to coyote and wild turkey.  It was fun looking for all the different prints. So many animals call this park their home - kinda surprised we did not see bear.

Wednesday the children went to their grandmothers for the day and night. She brought them home on Thursday late afternoon. I had a day and 1/2 to do whatever I wanted! Hubby and I had a much needed date night with a great dinner and live music.

Thursday - I shopped a little, rested a little, cleaned a little, organized a little, got a manicure and ran a million and one errands. It was a nice break but I missed them also.

This weekend - soccer games and some fun at the library with a crafty afternoon!

Enjoy the weekend and you can find me and other homeschoolers linking up at:

My son had the exact same Pikachu costume this year. He's still wearing it around the house as pajamas.

Collage Friday and a Video

We have had a good week here in NY. The snow is melting and the signs of spring are everywhere!  I am ready for the light coat and to put away my Uggs for the season.   Zachary worked on the Women and Children of the Revolutionary War - and some fun Scholastic - Super Science!  He is always working on his IPAD playing Scrabble, Words with Friends, Monopoly, Stack the States and Stack the Countries. The girls and I talked about what is happening outside with the plants and animals. Waking up!  Sammie also enjoyed this Sofia the First Unit. We had so much fun making our Chocolate Volcano Cakes from our Raddish box this week.   Of course some Spring crafting was in order. We made these easy cupcake paper and button flowers pictures. Also using some kitchen sponges (for stamping)  from dollar store to make these beautiful spring cards.  Thursday Science - again going to our Raddish box and finding a cool experiment. ...

Little crafting for Spring

I seem to be in a crafting rutt lately so I needed to get my Spring crafting mojo going...I did something real simple that satisfied me for now... I turned this Goodwill frame $ 1.99 Into this... Using this paint My hot glue gun, some sandpaper, piece of scrape burlap, some moss from the Dollar Tree and a few of the little robin eggs I bought at Pottery Barn a few weeks ago.  I think it's cute and will find a home for it!
