Let's see...

I don't know what to name this post, I haven't written in a while so I want to post, but there's so many things to write about. I could write for a long time. So here's how school has been:

We've been doing a lot of things, I just received my knew grammar program it's been a lot better then my old one. Math is going well, mom school is probably my favorite part of the day. We've read some classics and lots of American history. I am currently reading Work and the glory #3 I love it! For more Info check out my mom's Homeschooling blog. Merry Christmas

Not much

I realized that I haven't posted in December yet. It's not like nothing has been going on...

Okay, it's December 8 and there's no snow! I can't believe it, it's crazy! I can live without snow though. I'm not a winter person! Have I ever told you all that I love Idaho? Well I do, amazingly(just kidding) I love it here in rural Idaho, just the way I like it.

Today we woke up to a hazy/brown foggy atmosphere. It was quite strange, then it started sleeting! Crazy! We're getting to the snow point.
  1. Happy day Abbie! Yesterday Abigail was blessed in Pocatello. It was a fun day. After church we had a big dinner at "The office"It was great! And on the way back we stopped to see CJ and Stephannie and saw their new baby Jacob.

And well, a bunch of other things here's a slidshow of all the festives...
