Spring Break is over:(

Yes, it's back to school and our busy lives again. Well, we actually did school everyday last week except Tuesday. That was left open to go to the Pink Palace Museum in Memphis. We got caught up in some of our subjects, but not all.

We loved the museum. TT wants to go back and spend his time viewing the exhibits. He could get lost in all those fossils, rocks and the historical stuff. I would like to post some of his favorite pics from the trip as soon as I have a minute.

To finish up spring break we took it easy over the weekend. It was nice to just hang out, watch movies and do nothing. Sunday we went to see the ballet of Peter Pan. It was put on by the ballet arts group from Poogie's dance studio. It was magical. When this group does a production it is excellent, and the premiere of Peter Pan was one of their best. The characters flew through the clouds, the pirates had sword fights and the crocodile was a hoot. Poogie couldn't stop talking about it.

So today we were back to school and swim practice. Only about a month left of the Y and it will be time for summer break. I can't believe how fast his year has flown by.

Diets are for everyone.

I took my sweet Buffy to the vet today for her yearly shots and physical. What started as a routine checkup turned into a nightmare for my sweet little pup. To put it bluntly she is fat. She should weigh around 7 to 9 pounds, yet she weighed in at a whooping 15 pounds.

So needless to say, no more treats, table scraps or junk food for our little, or I should say plump little dog. She's none to happy with the situation. Everything else check out okay. I left the vets office with my arms a little heavier (carrying Buffy) and my pocketbook tremendously lighter.

Update.

I guess I need to get on the ball and update my blog more often. It just seems like by the time I get to it I'm to darn tired to type. So, here it goes before I get too tuckered out.

We have been busy, of course. This week is spring break, which means no YMCA or dance. The YMCA is having swim team practice but we are not attending this week. I took the week off, totally. I plan on catching up with school work, like that will ever happen LOL, finish my unit on the human body we will begin next week, and just chill.

So far my plan is not going so well. We did do school today, but not as much as I would have liked. I haven't really chilled out and just hung out either. I've been too busy spring cleaning and doing never ending laundry.

Tomorrow we plan on taking a trip to a museum with another homeschool family if the weather cooperates. It may be stormy. I am ready for spring, but not all the stormy weather that comes with it.

On a positive note, my ds TT is reading. And I mean really reading. He started reading through the Twilight series about a month ago and is now on the third book, Eclipse! He hasn't ever read a book this fast and with so much excitement. I had already read all the books several times and it is so fun to sit and discuss all these great characters with my son. We are really enjoying the discussions.

I must go for now.
