Mexican train, tgif, and Heart Gallery

We purchased a Mexican Train game and we sat down Wednesday night to play it together.  It is a fun game, even though I am not sure if we got the rules quite right...it was still fun!

 The best part is, everyone's smiles while we are having fun together :)

 I am so glad if is Friday, wheh!  We have worked hard this week, no snow break from school for us!  It sure gives me a big sense of accomplishment at the end of the week.  Everyone is doing great!  N and L had to both take assessment tests before entering the new online school.  I am Super happy to report that they both did great, and both ranked in the 92nd and 95th percentile for reading!  I guess my laid back teaching style has been just fine these last few years! 

All this schoolwork, + snow days have done a number on my house.  Wow, what a mess.  L took this photo, but it captures just a small portion of the mess our house has been.  We have had several pick-ups each day...but without deep cleaning/organizing, it has been rough.  I feel a little better this evening after doing a major den pick-up, and I have unburied my bedroom tonight too!  I do have floors in here!  haha

 I have been adding more photos to the Pulaski County Heart Gallery again tonight.  These are some that were taken at our photo shoot a couple of weeks ago.  I only took one of them, these are just some of the ones our photographer Chrystal took for us.   I haven't gotten them all online, and we have some more coming from another photographer too. 

 I really enjoyed these girls.  They arrived later after the other photographers left, so I was so glad I had brought my camera with me.  They have been in the Heart Gallery for awhile.  They have really grown since the last time I photographed them.  Such sweet girls, I had a great time visiting with them.
