Our life in books



This is our eigth year of homeschooling and I finally got around to blogging about our adventures a few years ago.
I love the path that God has us on.
We get to enjoy the lightbulb moments in educating our children and have quite a few of them ourselves.

We are starting Exploration to 1850's this school year, 2012-2013 using My Father's World curriculum.
Rome to the Reformation,
Exploration to the 1850's and NOW.........

Below is the week by week of lessons for this year if you'd like to start at the beginning.
There is also a handy LABELS area that you can peek through to find a specific lesson.

Road Schooling and Fishermen

Getting to homeschool is one of my greatest joys. However, I did expect to be slightly more flexible with our days and follow Dad on work trips out of town more often. 

Hallelujah! this was one of those weeks. We took Tuesday and Wednesday and went to 'work' with Dad. He did all the work but we got to play and sight see in a new town not that far from home but far enough to have to spend the night. Bonus that it was near the ocean and we got to spend some time at the beach on a 75 degree January day. Gotta love So Cal. 

Kibru learned that fishing is a lot like standing on a dock and watching the water below.
I learned that fishing is going to be rare in our family unless we move to a stocked lake. 
I don't have any answers for why the fish no come?? as Kibru was fond of asking me every 10 minutes or so. At least the real fisherman next to us caught a cool looking guitar shark and let us get an upclose peek before he threw it back in.



 they really do love each other
 Part of the problem was that he insisted on reeling it in every 5 minutes to check and see if he caught anything. 
The fun was in the casting, I suppose.

 Hunky Hubby was having a blast!

Sunsets are meant to be shared!
