3 Weeks & Counting..

Until the 2011-2012 school year starts..I am trying to update the blog..I have negelected it so badly..I need to start blogging more and using Facebook & Twitter less..

So many things (some good, some bad) have been happening here..To much to explain right now but I will do so in the future..

This blog is about homeschooling mostly..But I am also going to share photos of the kids, and when we go on field trips, etc..

So I look forward to sharing again with you..Here's to a great homeschooling year!!

Here are a few pictures I've taken this summer..

One of my favorites..I love taking pictures of reflections..This was at South Park near where we live..

My kids while we were on a short mini vacation in Ohio..

Another reflection photo..This was taken at the Pittsburgh Zoo..

One of God's creatures..The praying mantis we found in our yard..

A rare picture of Bob & Me on his birthday..

Welcome To The New & Improved S.P.C.H. Blog!!

This is my first post on my new blog..I figured out how to do a few new things to it..It's going to take alittle while before it's all complete..

I deleted my other blog to take time out to spend with my family, and review my life in general..Things are going well..I will write more about this later..

We started back to school Aug. 18th..We're now in Wk. 5 almost Wk. 6..The kids have been doing well..I will post what books, etc. they are doing another time..

We had a field trip of sorts Labor Day weekend..We were in Ohio and went to the Grotto at Rhoda Wise's house..If you have read Mother Angelica's biography you probably know that name, but for those of you who don't..She is the woman who helped Mother when she had her stomach problems, and was visited by Jesus & St. Therese..She also had the stigmata..You can read more about her at..www.rhodawise.com/index.html. We didn't get to go into the actual house, because it was closed due to the holiday..We had a very serene, peaceful time there.. The PCPA's run the grotto & own the house now..Here is a picture I'm sharing with you of the grotto w/ my kids in front of it..

Here is a picture of the inside of the grotto

If you're near Canton, OH anytime I'd recommed going to this beautiful, peaceful grotto..

That's all for now..I will blog more later on..
