No more lazy mornings or late nights. It's back to school this week in our home. It's always hard after a long break. We have been off of school now for three weeks. I don't think homeschoolers ever do take a real break from school and learning though. We have played several board games, drawing practice, sewing, crafting, cooking and reading. This week we will have to crack the books once again. The kids are looking forward to it but they are also sad that the lazy lounging holidays have come to an end.

This week we are heading to the Southern states of our learning. Monday we will be focusing on Kentucky and the life of Daniel Boone. Tuesday we are doing double state fun by learning about the tale of two Virginas. Wednesday it's off to Tennessee. Thursday we have our weekly co-op and Friday we are learning about swamp life and oranges in Florida. I will have much to share with photos too!

I still need to post about our week of learning about Oregon. I have many great photos to share about dam building when the kids learned about beavers.

May God be with you this week wherever or whatever your plans are. It should be a busy one around here once again. I don't know if I'm ready for this yet!!

Blessings and God Speed!
