This is crazy

This is so crazy! I've been working perfecting this blog that I started last night...I think I've spent 5 hours on it today alone. I have to say, it's not as easy for me as it is for others...Ummm...Chantel. I'm not very literate when it comes to making pictures fit and adding links and stuff so bear with me...it's a work in progress, I HOPE! Off to bed for now.

Two Little Monkeys and a Cleaner

Well, the weather has been so nice, it's been hard to stay focused on our school work. Today, the girls decided to try doing their math while being monkeys in our tree. Alexis was successful. Amanda, on the other hand, will have to finish her math in the morning. We thank God we have been blessed to school our kiddos at home.


While the girls monkey'd around, Joshua
thought he'd be helpful and clean up the
slides and table. Aren't they shiney!



Walt Disney World 2007




It's been a little over a month since our return from Disney World. We had so much fun! We were there for 12 days...almost sun up to sun down everyday. What little troupers I have. We stayed at Disney's Port Orleans Riverside...it was the cheapest place that Disney would allow all five of us in one room. There were two full beds and a trundle, which I got to sleep on a few nights. Let me just say there's nothing like your own bed. We used the dining plan and ate like Prince/Princess'. We really enjoyed our time at the Typhoon Lagoon Water Park. We spent three of our days there. We tried to incorporate school while at Disney. At Epcot's World Showcase, we were able to visit some of the countries we're studying. We had Disney workers stamp our "passport" and write something in the language of that country and then translate into English. We also video taped them speaking the language. The fireworks were great too! There's so much to see and do. If you've never been, we highly recommend it. We took over 1,000 pictures. We've finally gotten back into some sort of routine at home. Sure has been a challenge though.
