Hello Everyone

It's good to finally be posting again. Life has sure been keeping us on our toes here. We had another round with the flu  which of course is always interesting with 6 people. My cousin from Virginia passed away suddenly which was a huge shock to our family. My oldest DD had to return to her DR. (skin) for her routine 6 month check up and there were two spots they removed for biopsy this time.Of course it is a scary time waiting for that phone call but Praise God everything is ok. My Uncle called with news the other night that his skin cancer biopsy came back as malignant melanoma. He has to go through a lot of tests to find out if he will have to go through chemo.His name is David , please keep him in your prayers. Forgive me friends for not being around and commenting on your blogs. I have been able to lurk  a couple of times but I'll be reading up on everything I promise.  I will try to get the pictures up of our finished lapbooks soon. They turned out great . I believe they are the best ones we have ever done. Good news abounds at our home too . Roosie and T had birthdays in March. Roosie is now a big 8 and T is an official teenager at 13. Where do the years go ? BabyGirl entered a story in the Sylvan Dell Publishers contest . She loves to write and is hopeful that she will win.Spring is here and things are blooming. It is a great time to be outside. I hope to get some neat bird pics up on the other blog. I have some different ones I will be adding today so check it out if you can . The link is in my sidebar .Have a great day in the Lord everyone !

Lapbooks

We have been working on lapbooks for Science and Social Studies / History . This is the one we are making for the American Revolution and the Constitution . It's not finished yet ... but soon :) The red folder folds out will hold all of our stuff for the Constitution . We should be finished with our study next week . I used the free templates and stuff at HomeschoolShare and Homeschoolhelperonline . I also used my Printshop program . We just started working on our weather lapbook yesterday but I thought I would post a cover picture for you for inspiration . I also started a new blog , Over Hill and Under Hill , where I am posting pictures and stuff of our Family's travels . Have a great day everyone !
