Extreme Makeover Home Edition Series Finale

Extreme Makeover Home Edition is not one of the shows I normally watch. However, my husband and son love it. They asked me to watch the series finale with them to which I agreed. It took place in Joplin, MO which is where that awful tornado went through last Summer killing so many, and devastating so many more. It was very touching and surreal to see what these people have gone through. How they love their community and want to rebuild and stay there. It was two hours long, which for me is a bit long, but it was worth it in the end. I still love the Feng Shui house the best. A great family show has come to an end. I know my boys will miss it.

So what have we been doing the past two days? Besides dodging rain showers, we have been having fun and some school work too, lol!

Tuesday was supposed to be a full day of school, but my husband came home early from work, because he had to go in super early. So just the basics were covered.

Then today we walked in the AM, DJ did Spanish, Math and Social Studies, while Caitlin did Head of the Class, Math, Handwriting, and Spelling. Then we were off to the park for a playdate. Of course it had to rain, but at least the rain waited until it was almost time to go home anyways. That happened last week too, lol!

Tomorrow we are supposed to be volunteering at the nature refuge, but if the weather is nasty, we will just stay home. We have never missed one, so I assume it won't be the end of the world.

Did you ever wonder how pennies are made? Caitlin wondered, and on Monday she will find out. If you want to know too, come back on Monday and I will post links to the lessons we will use.
