Home-SU-Cool

We were very blessed to have the resources to drive 8+ hours to Ohio for the Teach Them Diligently Convention. It was such a wonderful time for us. The kids had a CRAZY time at the waterpark. Their first time!! I was amazed at the courage of our older ones to go on the rides. My hubby and I were so filled up by the speakers. The sessions were really encouraging. We especially gained a lot from Todd Wilson and Karen DeBeus . We were also quite excited about the museum of the Bible , coming to D.C in July 2017. I had the chance to enjoy some time with moms at the Evening of Real Refreshment. Mennonites worshiping with Pentecostals? Why not? =) It was an interesting experience. I appreciate the work put in by the team. I feel that TTD was VERY well organized and they had a ton of great speakers. I only wished the times for meals were not that rushed. =) Thank God for a mom on facebook to remind me the use of crockpot liners. OH MY!!! It saved our sanity...

    It was good to get away. For the kids to be with nature again. The historic village was fun, and the girls were playing they were Laura and Mary (from Little House). =) We visited the Steamtown Historic Site again and this time we took the train (it was o-k-a-y). We had fun looking at the trains, even the girls. I think their highlights were the lawn (where they do a lot of ballplay), the swing and the lake (no swimming but they can build sand castles)

We'll be having a break from school for 3 weeks. HOW DIVINE. Actually I think we might miss school. But important people are coming from the other side of the globe. A very good reason to rest. We'll probably still do a lot of reading and very school stuff, just not the planned units...So, leaf unit in mid Oct!
