I can't believe that this day finally came... it came so quick it seemed. I remember talking with Micah about her future life then on July 4th, Brett proposed! Time has passed quickly since then! Much planning and organizing had to happen to make this special day go smoothly. And I think it did! May the Lord bless this couple!

Yesterday I spent most of work running errands. This is why I love my job, it consisted of me stopping and ordering some treats for tomorrow. Plus my boss is super awesome and treated me to this yummy cupcake. <br />

Today I get to spend sometime doing two things I love to do... talk about social media and eating cupcakes. Here are the cupcake toppers I made for today's talk with <a href="http://okwu.edu/">OKWU.edu</a> Board Spouses:<br />

It was a fun time of sharing some do's and don'ts of Social Media and tip and tricks to make life a little easier. We only covered my four favorite SM platforms twitter, facebook, instagram, and PINTEREST. If you have been to my blog at all, you know I love pinterest! I don't see how anyone can't but help to fall in love with it! <br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana;"></span><br /></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Thursday night Pastor and I enjoyed an amazing dinner at <a href="http://okwu.edu/">OKWU.edu</a>, with speaker Dr. John Maxwell. We were accompanied by great friends and our bosses. It was a lovely evening. The food was amazing. My University did awesome in service and Dr. Piper was eloquent as always. </span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span> </div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Dr. John Maxwell spoke on leadership. He reiterated what Pastor and I believe to be as great leadership, that it hangs on relationships. Everything rises and falls with leadership. The good, bad and the ugly. So to accomplish our goal in this life, we must posses good leadership qualities. I pray that Pastor and I are leading to the best of our ability with the blessing from God.</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">On Tuesday of this week, Maxwell's 73rd book came out, <i>15 Invaluable Laws of Growth</i>. I can't wait to read it. Click the book to purchase your own copy and read it with me. </span><br />

I so can't believe we are into week #5!!! And it is crazy that I myself know all the past week's memory work. All the amazement can go right to God, because it is a miracle that I am remembering these things! #lifelonglearningisawesome And whats even more amazing is that my little girls are picking it up so well. Now we seem to have trouble when it comes time to proof... many of us do. But I remember that my girlies are young and in due time confidence will come! And so will knowledge! Praise the Lord for His faithfulness! <a href="http://www.linkwithin.com/"><img alt="Related Posts Plugin for WordPress, Blogger..." src="http://www.linkwithin.com/pixel.png" style="border: 0px currentColor;" /></a><br />

Snacks: This week's presentation is over "teaching". The students get to be the teacher and help us learn something. The skill to work on is speaking loud enough for everyone to hear you and use good expression. <br /><br />Review: Jeopardy </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Science Project: Trick Your Tongue <br /><br />Next week Presentations is over Story Telling. The skill we will be working on is knowing our material really well. Practice your presentation for your family or friends. Remember to keep your presentation to 2.5 mins. See if you can do your presentation without your note cards. (Extra tickets will be awarded for knowing your speech!) </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I'm praying for each one of you and look forward to next
week, Week #6! <br />The Kids will get to redeem their tickets next Tuesday!!!</span> <div class="blogger-post-footer"><script>

<a href="http://www.linkwithin.com/"><img alt="Related Posts Plugin for WordPress, Blogger..." src="http://www.linkwithin.com/pixel.png" style="border: 0px currentColor;" /></a>Every year it is a tradition. When the summer is slipping away and cool nights of fall sneak in, you know it's time for the Tulsa State Fair. <br />
<br />
This year we went visited the fair for the 3rd year in a row (ever since they came into our lives) with Nana Barbara, Papa Ron and Tasha. We walked, we ate, we looked, we ate, we rode, we ate... it was a great night! <br />

Please Remember <span style="font-family: inherit;">I need your help with prizes for Week 6 when the students redeem their tickets. Some families have already purchased some, thank you! I need each family to purchase at least 12 small prizes to go into the treasure chest. These need to be cheap, I'm thinking Dollar Tree items here! If you could be purchasing those and bring them next week, Week 5, Tuesday October 2nd, that would greatly help me out! Thank you for your help in this again!!!</span><br />

<br />
Next week Presentation is over Geography in topic and the students need to
focus on controlling their pace during their presentation. They need to try to make it to 2.5 mins with 30 secs of questions. <br />
<br />
Please
Remember <span style="font-family: inherit;">I need your help with prizes for
Week 6 when the students redeem their tickets. Some families have already
purchased some, thank you! I need each family to purchase at least 12 small

Remember Week 4 is Potluck Day for Lunch... or as I found a new name for it "Assorted Blessings" ... (I don't like the word luck... I have a Beth Moore study to thank for that! )<br />
I'm praying for each one of you and look forward to next week, Week #4!<br />

Math: Say, Sing song on <a href="http://www.classicalconversationsbooks.com/cycle1audiocds.html" target="_blank">CD</a>. *Sparkle*... cause they wanted to play again<br />
Science: <a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/196047389999985150/" target="_blank">Using this visual</a>. Which was wrong... So we did Board Wars as team and individuals. <br />
Proof and Snack<br />
Presentations: Show and Tell. Working on Introduction and Conclusion<br />
Review: ... just didn't get to it. =( <br />
<br />
<br />
It seemed that today's proofing was extra long since it was our first time to try it. So next week hopefully my mommas can help out and knock through this part. I also plan on proofing the first 30Min's instead of doing art first, to get the proofing behind us! But all of the students did great on their proofing and all got their stickers for their folder! <br />
<br />
Next week Presentation is Biographic in topic and the students need to focus on controlling their bodies during their presentation.<br />
<br />
Please Remember <span style="font-family: inherit;">I need your help with prizes for Week 6 when the students redeem their tickets. Some families have already purchased some, thank you! I need each family to purchase at least 12 small prizes to go into the treasure chest. These need to be cheap, I'm thinking Dollar Tree items here! If you could be purchasing those and bring them on Week 5, Tuesday October 2nd, that would greatly help me out! Thank you for your help in this again.</span><br />
<br />
I'm praying for each one of you and look forward to next week, Week #3! <div class="blogger-post-footer"><script>

I Bloom. All my life I have NOT, repeat not enjoyed reading. <br />
Maybe because my lifestyle now and always has been so busy, so crazy, just too much going to for me to stop and read a book. However, as I get older... dare I say that, I am enjoying books more and more. <br />

Jen took seven months, identified seven areas of excess, and made seven simple choices to fight back against the modern-day diseases of greed, materialism, and overindulgence. Check out the trailer here:<br />

Last spring I stumbled upon <a href="http://www.incourage.me/" target="_blank">http://www.incourage.me/</a>. <br />
It has been a great christian resource for me as a wife, mom and daugther of the King. <br />
I particpated in their <a href="http://apileofashes.blogspot.com/2012/05/inrl-bible-study.html" target="_blank">bible study/community building weekend called in(RL) Real Life</a>, back in April. Since then, I enjoy getting emails about articles that encourage me and uplift me in life and ministry. <br />
We share a passion for community and relationships. That is how I believe we grow the Kingdom. <br />
<br />
Happy Kingdom Building! <br />

I checked out this lovely book at the Library on Thursday. I have a love for things "Southern" and wanted to share little idea's in this book that I fell in love with. Kind of like a favorite pins post, but things I actually looked up in a book instead of on my computer or phone. You know, old style. Take a look:</div>

I loved the wire baskets hanging up as a shelve. Also love the starfish in the basket. Look at that simple and cute chandelier too. </div>

I love all things green! Look at this front porch "chandelier" idea. I also love lemons, so this is such a cute idea for me to try out. Also did you know that lemons ward off mosquitoes? So what better arrangement to have outside on your patio! </div>

I though the stacking of these baskets was so cute. I loved that different colors of the baskets and mixing the Bread box in there for texture and color. Also love how the top basket has a tin, crab apples and greenery flowing out of it. So clever and simple! Beautiful! <br />

With our homeschool starting up this week, life is officially crazy time. However I am trying to organize it as much as I can to make our days go by easier and be able to get the things we need done, DONE! <br />

I plan on making schedules to go into the girls school binders to help them see a visual of what they are to except each day. We also plan using our wall pocket organizer to see our schedule on a large scale. <a href="http://apileofashes.blogspot.com/2012/08/homeschool-curriculum-for-my-5-4-year.html" target="_blank">To see what we use for the girls curriculum go here.</a> <br />
<br />
I am feeling a little overwhelmed with fitting everything in. We are a busy family (I know many are) but we are way busier than I would like to be. I don't get enough sleep as it is and I don't see that changing any time soon. I'm a huge night owl. Here is how our week looks:<br />
<br />

Then play, computers, outside, etc. <br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><strong>Tuesdays:</strong></span> CC Community Day<br />

15 mins on:<br />

Now get ready for church tonight. <br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><strong>Thursdays:</strong></span><br />

Hopefully we can do things that go along with this weeks learning, like field trips and fun games to review memory work. But if we can't then we just need to have fun as a family. <br />

So it is {Week 33} now and I have managed to complete a layout for this week. I like the way it turned out. I'm still getting used to<a href="http://www.beckyhiggins.com/" target="_blank"> this way of scrap booking</a> but I love it. I'm trying to find my style and voice for our book. I think it will be different each and every year, simply because my style changes all of the time.</div>

Emma made this cute little drawing on a piece of paper and I wanted to incorporate it into this week's layout. So I took a pic of it using my beloved Instagram and printed it out 2x2 to add to this 3x4 journaling card. This week I found a cool <a href="https://docs.google.com/file/d/0Bw1RXYIJWCrfNWUwMjk2MWUtMTVjMi00YjFkLTlkZDYtNmExMjZjZmU0N2Jl/edit?hl=en_US" target="_blank">faux washi freebie</a> at <a href="http://bananafishstudio.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">BananaFishStudio</a> and used some <a href="http://misstiina.com/blog/60-free-printable-journal-cards/" target="_blank">free cards</a> from <a href="http://misstiina.com/">Misstiina.com</a> as well to create this week's blocks. <br />

In the top right corner I share a sweet little gift from my little one who decided I needed some butterflies in my life. I also included <a href="http://www.simplyfreshdesigns.com/2011/07/on-with-the-new/" target="_blank">some cute freebie cards</a> by <a href="http://www.simplyfreshdesigns.com/" target="_blank">Simply Fresh Designs</a> into my layout this week. {I am not LDS, but she has some cute cards, go take a look.}<br />

I don't know what it is with Emma and wanting to keep every one's fortunes, but she has been doing it a lot these days. So this week I decided to add the ones from lunch on Sunday to our layout. <br />

<br />
This year I am so excited to be the Foundations tutor for CC Masters at the new Bartlesville Town and Country Campus. Masters are the "Older" kids in our CC Community. I wanted to give you a look at what our a day in the life of a Master would be: <br />
<div class="post-body" id="post-8154667459291390434">
<style>#fullpost{display:none;}</style>
<br />
<div>
8:30am - We will arrive at our CC location. I have made a trifold board to put all of our memory work on to use at home and in the classroom. It is so helpful and cute at the same time. I know the students don't care but I do! </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
8:50am - The tutors get together before the Opening Assembly and pray together. </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
9:00am - Assembly - the whole group gets together to recite the Pledge of
Allegiance, the Pledge to the Bible, recite and learn the new timeline cards for
the week, and learn the memory verse, which builds over the course of the
year.<br />
</div>
<div>
9:30am - Class starts! We present the new
grammar first. There are 6 subjects to present. Iwant to go in the same order each week. Geography, History, English, Latin, Math, Science. It doesn't really matter what subject you start with as long as you get it all in. The key is to repeat the information 7 times.<br />
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>Geography: </strong><span style="font-size: small;">I will have the students start off the day by coming in and getting right to work with a "Review Sheet" and copy work. During this time we might proof as well. </span></span></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<b><span style="font-size: medium;">History</span></b>: I
will present the history work by reading the sentence to my students, teach hand
motions, listen to the song, and then we all sing the song with hand motions. I will also write the history sentence on the board and repeat the info over and over erasing words each time. </div>
<div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: medium;"><br /><strong>English: </strong></span><span style="font-size: small;">For the first 12 weeks we will be learning about prepositions. There is a song on our CC Cycle 1 Resource CD that will help us learn the prepositions. Also you can find motions to this song {<a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/196047389999726320/" target="_blank">here</a>}.</span></div>
<div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>Latin:</strong> <span style="font-size: small;">I will use resources off of C3 to use in class.</span> </span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<b><span style="font-size: medium;">Math:</span></b> Since I have the Masters, we do Multiplication Facts instead of Skip Counting. </div>
<div>
<br />
<span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>Science:</strong> <span style="font-size: small;">There are some great ideas on pinterest out there that I will be using.</span> </span></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
10:00am - Science Project: Each week there is a Science Project or Activity to complete. </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
10:30am - Wash up from Science Project and have a Snack and Bathroom break.</div>
<div>
<br />
10:40am - Presentations. I'm not allowing snack during presentations. I have the older students and at this stage they need to be displaying proper communication during this time. <br />
</div>
<div>
11:00am - Art - for the first 6 weeks, we are focusing on drawing. </div>
<div>
<br />
11:30am - Review - this is the time during which we review the memory work from the past 6 weeks plus what we learned today. {<span style="background-color: white;"><a href="http://pinterest.com/sanfordcompany/c1-review-games/" target="_blank">Here</a>} are some review games I plan on using.</span></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
12:00pm - Lunch Time, Yum! Then Recess!<br />
<br />
That is a look at what our day will be as a CC Tutor and Student. We start next week and can't wait! <br />
Happy CCing! </div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Title Page: </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This page documents our journey down to the beach. It was about a four hour drive that took longer than just four hours. We left the house right before 7am. We were in our car, Nana and Poppie in their's. We traveled south to later meet up with Uncle Josh on his bike and Aunt Lala (Lauren) with baby Ava and Jenna. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">All the stops made me hungry, very hungry! That is all I could think of the whole trip and that I was not looking forward to that ferry ride. Somewhere Uncle Josh found some friends from the gas station to the ferry, a bunch of them! Once we got in line for the ferry, Jenna and Ava hopped into our car to hangout. Poppie kept playing with them. They didnt mind waiting. I on the other hand did, I was hungry and needed some food. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After waiting for about 45 mins, the ferry came and picked us up. They loaded us on that boat like sardines. I did not like it. We also had to turn off the car until the ride was over. Also I thought I could pick up a snack on this ride, but I was mistsken. There was only heat, sweat, and tears, from me not the girls. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We do look happy in our pic on the ferry, but don't let me smile fool you, I wanted off that thing as soon as I could. </span><br />

So this is how we decided to celebrate our local school district going back to school. See, we don't start till September 4th doing our Classical Conversations... and I'm not going to start any earlier than I have to! <br />Plus I need the time to plan. School will be here soon enough. </div>

Here I got this cute baker's rack at Hobby Lobby 4 years ago. This is one of my favorite pieces of furniture in my house. I have used it in almost every room. But now it is in the <strike>dinning room</strike> our home school room. It holds all sorts of items needed. There is a lot of scrapbooking items on this baker's rack. At the top of the rack I keep my School Clipart Books. At the bottom of the rack are $1 bins that I got at Wal-Mart to organize supplies. </div>

Ha, this is our bedroom dresser that wouldn't fit down our hall, so now it is in the dinning room. It isn't so bad though because it gives me more surface space to pile things on =) right now it's clean because I was taking a picture. Come on moms, you know how that is. I also keep a cheap and cute basket {pictured to the right of the dresser} to hold our new <a href="http://apileofashes.blogspot.com/2012/08/classical-conversations-new-timeline.html">Classical Conversations Classical Acts & Facts Timeline Cards. </a></div>

Here is our work boxes. I don't use them like most families use work boxes. I only store items needed for that subject. How ever if the girls were to pull one out there is stuff to do in those work boxes. Maybe in the near future I will work it out to where these boxes get used everyday with school work in them. </div>

I put all my materials in these boxes. They help me stay clean around our school room. </div>
