Our week Oct.1-7th

This week we are going to be studying World War I, yep do you see the deer caught in headlights look, I don't think I studied that in public school(it doesn't stand out in my memory). But I find myself teaching about it this week. WE also are going to be watching an IMAX video of Hawaii, to help with our Hawaii projects due next week.
My oldest will be finishing up the fractions book finally, yep I know I have been saying that for 2 week but we got a little off track with the dog dying and life! We will be spending some time looking for some bugs for ds insect project that is due in November for his Co-op General Science class. We also are going to meet my parents for some clothes for the boys (YEAH really needed) this should keep them clothed for the rest of the year, we now need to find some long sleeves shirts for my dd!
This is the midpoint week for co-op so we will have a break next week! I so need it! Hope you all have a great week!

Well after looking for 6 months it appears all that stands in the way of dh going back to work is a little drug test :) He will be working for the largest freight company in the U.S. I will give you a little hint of who it is

Week in Review week 10

We just did basics this week with the death of Cocoa we just figured to keep it simple this week. My youngest finished his Gamma level in math yeah! My dd will finish epsilon next week :) It was really kind of a quiet week, my oldest son had lots of science homework to do this week. We are on week 3 of co-op and I love the classes the kids are in this semester. My dh is still looking for work and we are still waiting to hear from a company, boy are they taking their time :( I especially like our history poster it was in the teachers notes and I thought it would be a good thing so the kids can get a feel for what it was like in the early 1900's.

We will miss you

This was after she was groomed about 3 months ago




WE had a death this week, very unexpectedly and we will truly miss our little Cocoa, even though she was only with us for 5 months she was a part of our family. We have no idea what happened to her, she was 9years old and had been checked out less than 3 months ago. She was only sick less than 24 hours and slipped away in her sleep.
