The Old Schoolhouse Magazine’s Review Crew was given the opportunity to review the new book, Tales from the Circle C Ranch by Susan K. Marlow from Circle C Adventures. For this review, I received the paperback copy of Tales from the Circle C Ranch and the PDF file of Andrea Carter’s Tales from the Circle C Ranch […]
Eight.
So I made a new shirt for Ellie. It suits her very well. Although, she doesn’t seem to want to discuss it. In fact, she promptly took herself elsewhere. After making a slight protest. And then she buried herself in something else. January 2016.
Hold that tongue, child. For your own safety, just don’t say it.
Pierce has said it before. He’s becoming redundant. Annoyingly redundant. Eden presented the dough she and Liberty were ready to punch down and form into buns for supper and Pierce took one look at it and exclaimed, “That looks like your belly, Momma!” Pierce is NOT my favorite person right now. Edited to add […]
Meet: Demanding Child and the One Who Does Her Bidding
Since traveling to South Dakota and home again, Ellie has been a bear. Naps have been scattered and much fought and bedtime is a screamfest. She hates her bed, she wants to sleep with someone else, and she’s a determined sort in her fury when she doesn’t get exactly what she wants. I’m pretty sure […]
I’ll just pick one out and take it home…
Liberty’s birthday is in a few weeks. She’ll be twelve. I’m at a loss as to what to give her for her birthday. She wants a horse. Unfortunately, a horse isn’t the only part of that equation. The fencing, feed, tack… yeah. It’s past my birthday budget. Ruby overheard a conversation with Blaine while we […]
Stinking Rotten People
We’re home. After 10.75 hours spent driving 650 miles with seven children in one overloaded van, we made it home last night at 6:30pm. I’m pretty sure I lost a few years off my life over the course of the drive. Word to the wise: place your least talkative child/ren nearest the driver during such trips. […]
TOS Review: Institute for Excellence in Writing
When the Institute for Excellence in Writing (IEW) came up as a review possibility, I was thrilled. I have heard fabulous things about IEW and was so hopeful to get to check them out for myself. I received the Deluxe Combinations Teaching Writing: Structure and Style, Student Writing Intensive Level A plus A Word Write Now and Portable Walls. […]
TOS Review: Apologia Educational Ministries
Apologia Educational Ministries asked the Old Schoolhouse Magazine’s Review Crew to review it’s Exploring Creation Field Trip Journal. As part of the Crew, I received one journal for my family to use and review. When I saw the write up about this journal, I wasn’t thrilled. Not because I didn’t expect it to be good […]
Friday: June 5, 2015
We’re camping this weekend in South Dakota with my parents. My sister went back to Nevada earlier this week and the kids and I are here for a pioneer/Indian Wars reenactments and a wagon train reenactment before we head back south to Missouri early next week. Tents, teepees, toy tamahawks, and skunk skins… Way too […]
It’s-Not-Friday-Anymore Photos
I missed Friday photos in the midst of transporting 8 of us 650 miles yesterday. But… Here’s my funniest photos of the week, courtesy of Blaine, starring Tell. Laugh for the week: check. You’re welcome.
