Barefoot Homeschooling

We had such a delightful day at the wild animal show at one of the local libraries yesterday. Safari Greg came out and really performed for the kids. He only had a few animals, but he himself had every child present rolling in the aisles with his jokes, pranks, and silliness. He really was charming and funny and it was a wonderful show.

Today I am calling the Tae Kwon Do place, doing our grocery shopping, and hitting Old Navy and The Children's Place, as both are having big sales. Maggie and Liam have both had big growth spurts recently and I'd be surprised if much fits them from last fall, and it seems like thrift stores lately don't offer much in their sizes that are worth a darn. They don't know we're going and they LOVE going clothes shopping, so I suspect we will have a fun day today!

I'm Reading:

The Thralls Tale still, but the heavy prose-style of the writing is really, really grating on my nerves. This would have been a much better book if the author had dropped all the flowery phrasing. It's making me want to read more about VIkings, though- anyone have any good fiction suggestions?
