I'm taking a few minutes to update the blog while eating my shredded wheat and rice milk ... sounds yummy, eh?
I just got three little girls off to school while the other 2 are waiting on me to start their day. Homeschooling is getting a little better. This school year had a shaky start, but we seem to be settling into a groove now.
I put on my running shoes the other day for the first time in a few weeks. We've had so much rain and mostly that was my excuse for not running. Yesterday I had a pretty good run while listening to "A Wrinkle in Time" on my iPod. I find that stories and podcasts are much more stimulating to me than music while I run. I always get bored with playlists and after a few songs, I feel like I am watching the clock. It has also helped to have some sunshine ;)
Swim team is starting to get busier. We just had our first meet 1.5 weeks ago and we will have one this weekend. The girls did great at the first one ... really cutting their times from the previous short course season.
I dragged my family to this location ... quiet, tranquil place that looks like something from an old movie. As a matter of fact, it was featured in the opening scene of Gone With the Wind. It's believed to be the only remaining structure from that film.
Needless to say, I got a few good pictures ...

For some reason it wasn't highlighted (the link), but now it is.
THANKS for the lovely compliments.
I love the pictures of your family. You are very blessed and I am so happy for you. We are scheduled to have family pictures made in November at a historical church in our county. I can't wait. We are in need of some good pictures.
Our homeschooling is going well. We also had a slow start, but the kids are learning everyday, and that is the main thing.
Blessings to you!!! : )
