The boys decided last night to complete today's school work so they can have today off.Don't you just love how home teaching allows you to do that.Today is my 16 year olds last day of school (public) they get a week off for Mardi Gras. We home schoolers will not. Well, if you haven't guessed yet,we live not to far from the Mardi Gras capital of the US yes, thats right New Orleans, La.
 When I came to know the Lord about 4 years ago,we decided as a family not to do the Mardi Gras scene anymore.So, we have replaced it with doing something else.Mardi Gras day is Fat Tuesday.So we will get together with friends from church and boil some crawfish.We Cajuns just loves us some crawfish.Well off to the library to return overdo books.Everyone have a very blessed weekend.

Blessings,
Melissa
