7 Quick Takes – April 17th

in church/faith, first communion, gardening, homeschooling

1. I decided to join in on Jen’s 7 Quick Takes! (Interesting factoid: Jen and I both were received into the Catholic Church on the same night!)

2. Finally, after weeks of putting it off, I got Jack’s First Communion invitations printed and sent out. Last year, I designed Noah’s on the computer and had them printed, but this year, I just printed them out on pretty paper. (I saved a fortune, and I still thought they were cute!)

3. On Thursday, we got together with another homeschooling family from church. I just love this family! We have been getting together often. Not only do the kids all get along, but their Mom is a wonderful friend. God has really blessed us by bringing them into our lives.

4. I’m having a blog maker done, and I’m finally not the one doing it. (Can I just tell you how much less stress this is for me?) I’m hoping to show it off in the next week or so. By the way, there will be ad space to buy, so if you’re interested in getting in while I have some low introductory pricing, drop me an email.

5. The kids and I planted seeds this week for lettuce, peas, beans, and spinach this week. They have already started sprouting! We have never really grown from seeds (we usually buy starter plants), so this has been an exciting science project!

6. Jack got his first splinter tonight! Eric tried to take it off and it broke. So, then we went for a visit to Papa (my Dad) who is a master splinter remover. We’re so blessed to have my parents living so close!

7. I ordered some more of our homeschooling stuff for next year from Winter Promise. Some of the books have been coming in, and I’m so excited! It looks great!
