Funny!

I read this on one of my homeschooling groups this morning. It had me laughing so hard... Perhaps you'll get a good laugh, too. Here are some great answers for the question, "What? No school today?!?" The kids and I haven't really been asked this yet, but I'm sure that as they get older, we'll have to answer it... I'll keep these in mind...

10. Well normally yes, but this time of year I need help with the planting and plowing.

9. Goodness, no!!! I graduated 18 years ago, but thanks for the compliment!

8. No, we homeschool. We're just out to pick up a bag of pork rinds and some Mountain Dew, then we gotta hurry home to catch our soaps.

7. What?! Where did you guys come from?! I thought I told you to stay at school! I'm sorry. This happens all the time. (sigh)

6. There isn't? Why, you'd think we'd see more kids out then, don't you?

5. We're on a field trip studying human nature's intrusive and assumptive tactics of displaying ignorance and implied superiority. Thanks for the peek!

4. On our planet we have different methods of education. (Shhh! No, I didn't give it away... keep your antennae down!)

3. Oh my goodness! I thought that today was Saturday...come on kids, hurry!

2. Noooooope. Me 'n Bubba jes' learns 'em at home. Werks reel good!

1. "What? No Bingo today?"

~~~~~~

Yes, It's Me...

I'm still here. The whole thing with Friday's Feast being out of commission has really messed up my forced plan to blog at least once a week... I've been busy, of course, and my blogging has suffered. What a bummer.

Here is the Cliff Notes version of what we've been up to:
http://www.blogger.com/img/gl.link.gif
  State Fair a couple of times
  Rode the Fair Train once
  A two-night's stay at Caribbean Cove - what a blast!
  Our pond now has water, tadpoles and goldfish... along with a few plants
  Doug is leaving for a week in Sweden... today!
  Amanda has a couple of teeth that are a wee bit loose
  James is doing great with his potty training
  Started Kindergarten (homeschooling!!) with Amanda and have found that James is much more interested in learning along with her this year - yahoo!!
  Went Geocaching yesterday with our awesome neighbors and had a blast
  Went to an inspiring, yet heartbreaking memorial to a wonderful lady that lost her battle with breast cancer

Ok. That is about it in a nutshell. Perhaps I can get around to posting some pictures soon. Sorry that my blog has really fallen off lately. I'll try to get it back on track soon...
