Let's see

For some reason the clip below of Susan Boyle wouldn't embed into my blog. In fact, none of the clips about it would, so go here.

It was the first time I've ever witnesses Simon blown away.

Well, according to our "schedule" we are seeing some light at the end of the tunnel. Amanda has finished with her handwriting book, her reading book and we have one more week of English left. Since we're switching math curriculum's, she'll be doing that subject over the summer.

But never fear, most of our friends homeschool over the summer so she can't use the excuse, "my friends won't be doing school" Ha ha ha!!!

Today, 144 years ago our 16th president died. In history, we've been reading about ol' Abe and thought how ironic it was how the dates fell.

Today is also my Mom's birthday. She would have been 63 years old. Would have been...strange phrase isn't it?? We usually all bought her something for her yard. Now, most of her stuff is in mine.

Don't forget if there's a tea party in your area, go make yourself heard.

The dog, Prissy, goes to the groomer tomorrow!! Praise God from whom all blessings flow!!! I vacuumed yesterday and there's hair on the floor AGAIN!!! She's one of those hairy dogs so if she's not cut short, she sheds!!! EVERYWHERE!

Amanda and I went to see the Hannah Montana movie yesterday after her lessons. It was cute! We both enjoyed it. Except Amanda wouldn't let me get up and do the "hoedown" Boom De Clap...

I come from the days of the "cotton eyed joe" . Minus the dresses and small phrase that you say...I'm just saying. I really looked for a clip w/out the "small phrase", couldn't find it...

Anyway...Happy Birthday Mom, Happy Tax Day, Happy Tea Party Day

Dreama,

Sim and I saw the Susan Boyle clip when it was posted on a British online newspaper. Amazing!!! We watched it several times. And I agree... I actually liked Simon during that clip. I've never seen him like that.

Very cool.
