Journal Entry

Josie and I have embarked on an adventure together. Homeschooling for core classes. She is loving her journal writing topics. We videoed her first entry to share with Grammie.

Thank Goodness

Today a software update popped up on my phone. How funny is the last point on this:
What's even better is watching my Aussie hubby, who really doesn't have an accent anymore, try to talk to Siri or use any of the voice recognition features. He'll be so glad!

Greece wasn't built in a day...

Okay I know the real saying is "Rome wasn't built in a day." However, either was the Parthenon. Holy Cow. McKay is learning about Greece & Greek Mythology. So the Parthenon was recreated. This project was started General Conference weekend {first weekend in Oct}; it was just completed on Wednesday. He watched a video on the restoration that is going on; found the dimensions, made it to scale and we started to glue & sand.

The project turned out really cool. I am so glad it's over, no more sugar all over my house!

Construction EVERYWHERE!!!

We went on a day trip down to the arches today. I have so much to post tomorrow, but until then I had to share what we found on our hike to Delicate Arch:

Yes CONSTRUCTION on the trail!!! I had to laugh when two teenage boys, couldn't believe it either and screamed out "construction!? it's even here!".

Dear Mom

Mom,
On my way to Special Needs Mutual, I spotted this.
We laughed so hard; we had to turn around and take a picture.

They are covering the canal and everything is ripped up. As I constantly sit in construction, I am thinking of you and your nice, clean, non-construction roads. Oh, Utah.
