Fireproof

Friday afternoon the kids and I went to see the movie Fireproof. I cannot say enough good things about it! I highly recommend that everyone support this movie. It would make a great "date night," and a fun "girl's night out." If you're married, make sure you see it at least once with your spouse. It will change you.... My kids even went to see it and loved it----and understood it. Of course, they've had to live the effects of what happens when things don't go the way they do in the movie.

If you look down further in my blog, you'll see a link to the movie site. You can link directly to the movie trailer. An interesting bit of trivia----in the movie there is a scene where Kirk Cameron's character kisses his wife in the movie. He has made a commitment to never kiss anyone but his wife. So, they dressed his real wife in the same clothes and filmed the scene in silhouette and so he is actually kissing his real wife not the actress. Now that's commitment to marriage the right way.

I'm going again tomorrow hopefully----I want to take my parents. I hope you all get the opportunity to see it and that you enjoy it.

Blessings,
Sharon

A New Week

The kids and I had a wonderful picnic at the park tonight. It was so refreshing! We're getting ready to ramp it up this week for our last week of the unit. I'll be posting pictures within the next couple of weeks with our unit celebration for Tapestry of Grace and all that the kids have learned and accomplished! I'm enjoying putting this blog together way too much---LOL!!!! Gotta love those gadgets! I hope every one of you will enjoy it.

Blessings,

Happy Friday

Well, it's Friday, and we've just about finished with school for the week. We started our outside activities this week including 2 Bible Studies, Latin and Science at coop (love having those science experiments done outside of my house!!!), as well as sports, etc. (flag football and dodgeball for Adam and soccer and drawing for Abigail). They are loving homeschool this year and are making lots of new friends.

I think I've about got this blog thing down (can't believe it!!!). Just a few little small changes and I think I can live with it. Never would have thought I could do it! Goes to show---you're never too old! Thanks Tiff for all the encouragement!

Happy Birthday Grandpa Roger----we know you had a birthday this week.

Will have another update next week----week 9 of our first year of Tapestry----loving it!!! Can't wait for a break and our unit celebration!

Blessings,
Sharon
