Decorated School Room

We have been wanting to paint Joshua's room for several years. He couldn't decide a color or theme. When we decided to homeschool, he wanted to make his room the school room and paint it blue and green and decorate for school. I posted pictures of our painting project and a before and after shot. Poppy came and helped finish up but I didn't get his picture.

First day of homeschool August 4th

We didn't get to use our newly decorated school room (Joshua's bedroom) our first day of school...LOL. Joshua has a skin abscess and couldn't sit up at a desk. We started school at 8:45 a.m. and then stopped to go to the doctor at 9:20 a.m. We finished up when we got done at the doctor's office. I tried to teach Joshua to hold his pencil the correct way. In the pictures, you will see the way I taught him and then the way he is use to holding it. As you can see in another picture, he was so excited that he could chew gum during classtime! (it is the picture with the gum showing in his mouth...obviously!). After school, he just laid around in pain from the abscess (possibly from a spider bite?).

Homeschool Party

We have decided to homeschool Joshua beginning this year. I see now how God has been preparing us for this for several years. The Taylor's, Maynard's and South's threw us a celebration party!

July 4th

These were at our hotel in Rockwall on July 4th. Some people were popping fireworks and caught the grass on fire outside our hotel right beside Lake Ray Hubbard. Joshua had his picture taken with the fireman. The other picture is Joshua "rock star" being cool! ha
