Well, fall harvest is upon us. We have had a nice little break with the rain we have been getting lately. It has been nice to have Chris home a few days to try and get a few projects done on the house and to just get to spend time as a family!

The kids entered projects in the fair and did a great job. Cayleigh took first with her crayon leaf. I have mini cake pans so, she picked one out and went through her crayons and peeled all the paper off of the broken ones to put in the pan. I put it in the oven for her to melt the crayons. It turned out really pretty. Her brother was snatching all the blues and greens so, hers ended up being fall colors. Josiah took chocolate chip cookies and ended up third. He learned so much like units of measurement and here he thought he was just having fun and making a yummy snack.

Homeschooling is also in full swing. It has been a lot of fun, but also full of challenges. We are all learning what works best for us (me as the teacher and Josiah's learning styles).

Chris just got home with the skid-steer and I better get out there to help him put our driveway back in order where the rain has washed it out.

God Bless,
