From Massachusetts to Texas!!

I am so thrilled how well our homeschooling is going.  Jenna and I are both learning a lot along the way...educational wise and character wise.  Today, we finished up our study of Massachusetts.  I must admit that I've learned just as much as Jenna.

I remember learning the states and capitals in school, but I don't remember learning ABOUT each state.  There were so many interesting facts in You Wouldn't Want to be at the Boston Tea Party, Wharf Water Tea, You'd Rather Not Drink.  We read it over the period of 2 days and it really makes me want to pick up more books from that series.  Next we are reading If You Lived in Colonial Times and You Wouldn't Want to be an American Colonist. We placed our Massachusetts stamp on our Road Trip USA travel log.  Our next state is NEW HAMPSHIRE!

After our studies were over, we headed out to the Home School Bowling League for our weekly session.  Jenna got 1 strike and several spares!  She has upped her all time high score to 91...way to go Jenna!!

And my big news is that I am going to Houston, Texas next week!  I'm really excited about the trip.  I've never been as an adult, so I'm looking forward to seeing if things really are bigger in Texas.

Until then...
