Thanksgiving break is over. I had a marvelous time. I don't have all the pictures uploaded yet, so you'll have to wait patiently. I might show you one or two, though. :)

It's hard to believe November is almost over. Usually November is, to me, one of the longer months of the year. This time it's just flown by! In just over a month it will be 2007!

In the meantime I've started back up on school. After a week of very few assignments, it felt good to get back in the swing of things. Moby Dick is proving quite a challenge; I never knew there was that much to be said about Sperm Whales! Physics is fun. :)

I've decided that I have a new favorite author: Karen Kingsbury. I've just finished reading and Fame and Forgiven. They are the first two books in the Firstborn series, which follows the Redemption series. The Redemption series is about the Baxter family and how they have to struggle through death, near-death experiences, and (as the name of the series indicates) redemption. The Firstborn series is a follow up and and tells the story of Dane Matthews, who is the son of John and Elizabeth Baxter. They had given him up for adoption when he was born, and now he's making his way back to his family and to God.

Here is a picture from the psalm sing Sunday evening. All of those girls you see in the picture squeezed into one pew. I think all of us were very hot by the time it was over. :)

Hi Martha! Sounds like you were busy over Thanksgiving break. :) I guess I shouldn't say anything, since it was the same with me.

I was wondering how you got it to say "this blog does not accept anonymous comments" on your NEK homeschooler blog. I tried to figure out how to do it, but I'm new at blogging. :)
