Oregon!


Things here have been so busy lately with moving that it seems like so much time has gone by since my last post. Well I finally made it and I have been busy trying to get things settled in our new house. I have the essentials unpacked, but I still have to get all my wall decorations out and add some life to these white walls, but all in good time he he.

This week I am trying to focus on getting things lined up for school, and preparing for the BIG OREGON CAMPOUT! I am looking forward to seeing all the brethren and the fun that goes along with camp.

It is so good to be out here again! The weather here has just been perfect since I have been back, and I have been enjoying some quite times with my husband and the girls. It has been a really nice week. Today we got out and did a little school supply shopping. It is amazing how excited a child can get over purchasing pencils and glue. It cracks me up!

Your deck looks great! Hopefully you will get out there and enjoy it this week. The weather is going to be fantastic. A great way to end the summer, right? So...are you putting your girls in public school or are you homeschooling? I couldn't remember what you were doing this year. Glad you are getting settled in and that you are enjoying the good life here!!

Michelle: The trip went really well, with no problems. However the van broke down yesterday....at least I made it out here and it wasen't on the way that would be way worse!

Trina: Yeah the weather heas just been wonderful! I have just been loving it! This year I am going to homeschool Alyssa and Shelbi, but put the three younger girls in public school. I'm a little nervous about attempting to homeschool again, so you can be my chearleading squad this year ok. :)

Your deck is gorgeous. I'm glad that you are settling in well. I wish I could help you arrange your stuff, that would be fun. The girls say that Allyssa and Shelbi are Thrilled to be homeschooling. You can do it! I miss you. Email me sometime.

Marisela, I will definitely be cheering you on, and anything else you may need to keep you going!! This year we will be buying the "Switched on Schoolhouse" program for 10th grade for Isaiah. Its all work that is to be done on the computer.

The other boys will be doing their schoolwork the same way we have always done at this level.


River will be taking his GED so that he can begin community college courses this year. He is so excited about doing this his senior year.

It's good to see you back in the NW! I always thought it was funny how excited the kids were over something as simple as new pencils lol

I am so glad that you are settled. I can't wait till things get lined out and in order for us. But in Gods own time it will happen. Good luck with the home schooling, I am sure you will do great.
