New Kid's Radio Show and bonus freebie

In case you haven't checked it out yet, there's a new kid's devotional radio program that is superb. Papa2many reads aloud from an outstanding book and then gives a little devotional. The first show was on discretion and the next was the "Froward mouth." Really good stuff. Check it out. I'll be tuning in with my kids! Here's the link: www.blogtalkradio.com/papa2many

Well, we spent most of the afternoon weeding out toys and cleaning out the playroom. The room looks GREAT and 5 of the kiddos are happily playing with the train table set. It's amazing what a clean room can do for a kid's imaginative playtime. Now, if I could get to the office, sitting room and school room. They all need some attention!

The boys had some room to wrestle a bit today and there's nothing more funny than hearing my 5yo saying "so ya want a piece of me???" to his big brothers. I love it when boys can be BOYS.

One more thing, a friend of mine told me about www.coinstar.com. For a limited time, if you have $40 in change, they will give you a bonus of $10. So, take that loose change in to a machine and get a little extra back! Just in time for the holidays.

Have a great day!

Anyway, here's a link for info on the Annual Golden Corral Military Appreciation Night. November 17, 5-9pm.

Labor Day Freebie!

A dear friend just sent me an email to let me know about a yummy freebie for Labor Day from Chick-Fil-A.
Here's the site:

They have a new kind of chicken nugget/dippers they are promoting. If you wear your favorite football team logo to a Chick-Fil-A restaurant, they will give you a free 3 piece chicken meal.
So, find some sports wear and get some free food! Woo HOO!

Hello again with perks!

Ha, perks...I will be posting a website chock full of free copywork pages. Great stuff. I've used it with my boys with great success.

Yes, it's been a loooooong while, hasn't it? It's been a busy few months and I have some pictures to post, but still cannot find my plug for my camera to download...

Well, we've moved out to the country. It's wonderful, and our family really really enjoys it. We have been blessed with a big house, some land and the opportunities to host events and dinners with other big families. Our desire is to use this home to bless others and be "carriers of Christ."

Our first outdoor order of business is to start a fall garden. Any ideas of the best crops to plant this time of year in the deep south?

In case you hadn't heard, right before our move, I broke my arm tripping over a baby gate. God has been gracious and sent us many hands to help us move and get settled! My arm is usable, but still quite weak. I go back to the doc next week.

Well, there's an update. I will be back on track soon, hopefully. I always seem to manage my time better when we get back to schooling full swing!

Here's that website!

Lots of different handwriting styles offered as well as several choices of writings. I myself prefer the D Nealian cursive. It seems to be easier for the boys.

Until next time!
