Homeschool Excellence Awards

Posted in Homeschooling

     My favorite curriculum, Tapestry of Grace, has won several Excellence Awards!  These awards were published in the Spring, so I am a little behind the times but I am thrilled that more and more moms are hearing about this wonderful curriculum!
     What I like most about the excellence awards is that the winners are selected by moms just like you and me who actually use and are blessed by these resources.  Votes are tallied by The Old Schoolhouse Magazine - click here to vote for your favorites!

Tapestry of Grace won in several categories this year:

BEST UNIT STUDY
     1st place
BEST CLASSICAL RESOURCES
     1st place
BEST OVERALL HOMESCHOOL COMPANY
     2nd place
BEST RESOURCE BOOK
     3rd place
FAVORITE BIBLE CURRICULUM
     3rd place
FAVORITE HISTORY CURRICULUM
     2nd place
FAVORITE GEOGRAPHY CURRICULUM
     2nd place
FAVORITE LITERATURE CURRICULUM
     2nd place
FAVORITE WRITING CURRICULUM
     2nd place
They also won 2nd place in the FRIENDLIEST and MOST UNIQUE categories.

Now that is a lot of awards!  I am thrilled to see this little known resource getting this much praise.  I only wish I had found Tapestry of Grace sooner!  If you would like to find out more about this multi-level, multi-subject curriculum for ages K to mom order a free information packet below.  It includes a sample cd.

Boys 'R' Us


We are a homeschooling family raising 4 boys in Virginia. This blog is mostly about anything relevant to raising boys or homeschooling in general - but every once in a while I can't help but add some nonsense from our daily life.

Quotes from the Boys

Josh: "Would you rather die or eat pizza for a year?" Um, let me think about that one!


Joseph: "Once I burped, sneezed, coughed, hiccupped, and farted all at the same time!" Now, only a boy could think that one up and think it is cool!
