Core E Week 12
This was a week of some lessons, and some prep for Christmas. Dh had a few days off so we could do some things that we normally don't have time to do. For one, instead of getting a Christmas gift that is great (like a new camera, which is what I *wanted*; but not *needed*) we decided to drive to the outlet place where I can find jeans for $11.00!!! I *needed* a new pair of jeans, a new dress-up shirt (not another yard sale t-shirt), and get ready and listen b/c I am going to whisper this item: "new bra's" (way past due!!!) So, all of us got a few very much needed items and then we took them home and wrapped them up for our Christmas gifts. I won't mention it wasn't fair that I wrapped my own gifts; b/c I was so thrilled that I really didn't mind one bit! The camera can keep on tempting me with it's zoom in lens and long range lens-- I can live with my old camera.
The other fun activity we did this week was with our small hs group (LHE). We met at a bowling alley and the kids had a great time bowling together! We mom's got to chat. Larkin had a really great time.
We had a "Craft Day" on Friday (and also during bits of the other days of the week too; but ALL Friday was crafts and no lessons at all.). We listened to Elsie Dinsmore while crafting away!
