I feel an extra close bond now since we have been there and can envison everything when you talk about different things. Miss you guys like crazy. No, I don't think we will be moving there any time soon -- there's the little detail of job/income, but it sure would be closer. Oh, and you guys have to come up again to the History Museum...they are having a display on CHOCOLATE now! We will have to do a fieldtrip there and post about it I guess.<br><br>Love you report and photos. Em did a really nice job on her leather craft! And I always love Betsy's sculpties. Cute cowgirl photos too!!! It's nice to see Amy actually in a photo for once to remind me what she looks like (just kidding)...they are all beautiful girls inside & out. I esp. love the photo of us all (except Amy) walking. What a great time we had!!!Plain Janehttp://homeschoolblogger.com/members/plainjane/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5134777892508885758.post-71750680819238114992010-10-30T09:26:21.000-05:002010-10-30T09:26:21.000-05:00opps, thinking faster than typing again.

For the most part, it's good and their books and volunteers mostly are good, but not something I can support fully.Plain Janehttp://homeschoolblogger.com/members/plainjane/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5134777892508885758.post-81142817185735225242010-11-02T11:09:33.000-05:002010-11-02T11:09:33.000-05:00Sounds like a full time.

The portraits, the sculpy clay, and the group shots!<br><br>That is so funny about the dates with 'protein.' <br>I remember going to Palm springs and getting dates and finding a few surprises. Eeeew! <br><br>I hear you about the added pressure of commitment for something like 4-H. Our kids didn't do Pioneers (youth group) this year either. Piano and orchestra are about all I can handle right now.<br><br>And too funny about your cheating at soccer. (I think I would, too) ;-)<br><br>God Bless,<br>MichelleMichellehttp://cityon-ahill.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5134777892508885758.post-80391191186360282172010-11-07T10:28:04.000-06:002010-11-07T10:28:04.000-06:00I always love these monthly wrap-ups.

Happy birthday to both your girls!<br><br><br>I had the pleasure of meeting hsb/justkaren a year or more ago, and she has become one of my dearest friends, so I could immediately relate to what you were saying about the visit from plainjane.<br><br><br>I think it's fantastic that your daughter is so willing to hold off on the make-up, etc. I see girls at the dance center as young as 11 with made-up faces and it makes me ill to think about the underlying message of a girl that young who thinks she needs make-up, as well as the mentality of the parents who allow it. I'm thankful that our 15-year-old is also comfortable with developing her inner beauty and watching it manifest on the outside.<br><br>I hope you included me in your 1/2 dozen readers! I just don't get over here as much as I'd like! God bless you, Sally!Belindahttp://homeschoolblogger.com/members/bbullard/noreply@blogger.com
