This week's plans and projects

On Monday we're taking the day off school and Daddy is taking the day off work. We're ending the day with a cook-out, including root beer floats.

Tuesday will be a little crazy. We have to figure out how to get Katie Grace to ballet and Michael to soccer at the same time.

Wednesday is St. Gregory's feast day. We like to walk around the house singing in chant. We're odd that way. Nicholas and Katie Grace both have soccer,

Girl Scout sign-ups are on Thursday.

First Friday is on Friday. We celebrate both by going to Mass and by going downtown in the evening. This is also the first day of co-op, where we'll be learning about popes and the papacy.

The first soccer games are on Saturday.

Sunday is not only Grandparents' Day, it's also Rally Day at church. We make sundaes during the Sunday School hour, and after church we have a pizza lunch and a showing of Tomato Sawyer and Huckleberry Larry's Big River Adventure.

We also are adding in writing, spelling, Latin, and geography to our school day. Our easy start is over!
