Week's summary, plans for the summer, 5/23/08

Posted in General
So we continue our weeks of light homeschooling.

The girls are continuing to do MUS.  K. is working on preparing for standardized tests, A. is reading, writing and doing logic (her favorite subject).  L. is working through LA 1 and just being cute. 

One morning this week, I woke up to find that K. had baked her own breakfast.  I bought some of those refrigerated dough things--one for cinnamon rolls and one for "crescent" rolls.  I had taught her how to make these a while back but she had never done it completely on her own.

So that morning, she did both rolls!  All by herself.  I was so proud.  I know it's just refrigerated dough, but still.  I love that my kids are learning to work in the kitchen.  I am determined to raise children who cook, and cook well. 

We have lots of plans for the summer.  Some are already set, others are in progress.

Here's what we have so far. 

Confirmed:  Las Vegas trip early June to attend the wedding of a friend.

Pretty sure:  trip to Destin, FL late June, family trip (with my bother, his wife and her family)

Still in the works:  Spanish school in Mexico mid to end of July, NYC/Prague/Vienna trip end of Aug

I will also confirm by tomorrow 2 camps for K.  One ballet camp here in town, another competitive gymnastics camp at a gym that cranks out Olympians. 

We also have swim lessons, and maybe karate camp for A.  We'll see. 

More later,
A.H.

I *so* wish I wasn't having surgery in late June- Destin is the area I'm from, and much of my family is. You'll have a blast!

You Are a Mac
You are creative, stylish, and super trendy. You demand the best - even if it costs an arm and a leg.
You Are Austin
A little bit country, a little bit rock and roll. You're totally weird and very proud of it. Artistic and freaky, you still seem to fit in... in your own strange way. Famous Austin residents: Lance Armstrong, Sandra Bullock, Andy Roddick
You Belong in Paris
You enjoy all that life has to offer, and you can appreciate the fine tastes and sites of Paris. You're the perfect person to wander the streets of Paris aimlessly, enjoying architecture and a crepe.
What Your Pizza Reveals
Your appetite is pretty average. You don't go overboard - but you don't deprive yourself either. You aren't particularly picky about pizza. It's so good... how could you be? You fit in best in the Western part of the US. Your taste in food tends to favor what's rich and comforting. You prefer food that will definitely satisfy you. You are eclectic, stylish, and totally random with your choices. You are deep and thoughtful. You should consider traveling to Paris. The stereotype that best fits you is guy or girl next door. Hey, there's nothing wrong with being average.
