Errands, Pipe Cleaners, and fun oh my...

It's been an interesting week so far.  We're nearing our completion of learning of England's beginnings, triumphs, and losses and of it's famous women, Beatrix Potter, and Margaret Thatcher to name just a couple. 

Annie is preparing for her 1st drama play coming up, she gets to play an Ant and a Snowdancer.  Costumes are easy enough but we still need to get a black headband, pipe cleaners and also some white and blue fabric and some glitter, I'm still trying to decide between gold and silver - of course I could use both.

Today is a very light day here in our home school schedule, a day mostly filled with simple work book pages.  For me that's a blessing as I have to get ready to do errands here in a bit, and stop in a quick trip to the grocery store.  Always fun.  Tonight might just be a burger and fries night.  Sounds good to me, maybe even I'll show Nicholas, our esteeming young cook, how to saute onions and mushrooms for the burgers. I think he's going to grow up and give Emeril a run for his money - BAM!

We have exciting news, our dog Roxy is pregnant and due with her pups around the middle - end of May.  It will be a learning experience for the kids in Animal Science, but it will also be fun to have baby puppies, love their little faces and their puppy smell.  But, we'll be giving them away to good homes when the time comes, I just hope the kids and even I do not get so attached.

Well off to do last minute preps before going out.
