Project 365: Days 12-19
12/365 Old School Until I get a laptop, I've started writing out product reviews in the car on the way to church and then typing them up later. It makes me feel a little old school and guarantees I don't lose my writing callous. 13/365 14/365 15/365 16/365 17/365...
Homeschool Memoirs: ABCs, Describing Me
Our assignment: "This week use the ABC’s to describe your character, your life, your homeschool, and your family." I decided to give this a try without seeing if I really could come up with anything first. Here goes! Analytical Blonde Churchgoer Dawn Eager Font-Loving...
Wordless Wednesday: Cool Suspenders
My sister got married in May. Our whole family fell in love with her new father-in-law; he is so cool. I loved these suspenders he wore to the wedding! Visit 5 Minutes for Mom or Wordless Wednesday for more Wordless Wednesday participants.
I ♥ Faces: Kids (week 2)
It's time for week 2 of the iHeartFaces photo contest! I'm really psyched that I got in on this from the beginning. Submissions are accepted each week from Monday through Wednesday, and winners are announced on Saturday. In just the second week, this contest shows...
KidsWealth Money Kit: How the Review-that-Almost-Wasn’t Became One of Our Favorite Products
When the KidsWealth Money Kit arrived, I took one look at it and decided that this was a product my husband should review and then I could interview him. He's much better at money management, and teaching it, than I am. Although the box had been opened and I knew he...
The Japanese Tea Party

A B See Photo Meme: B is for Botany
10/365 I'm killing two birds with one stone here: Project 365 and the A B See Photo Meme at The Homeschool Post. I posted last week's Foto Friday there, using my "A." Today I've got "B" for Botany. We started Jeannie Fulbright's Exploring Creation with Botany today....
1st Day of Co-op
9/365 The only photos I took today were from our first day of co-op. To be perfectly honest, they weren't terribly exciting, but I don't want to bail on Project 365 after a mere 8 days! I decided to have a little fun editing, though. While the kids were in music...
Homeschool Memoirs #21: School Days
I couldn't resist this week's Homeschool Memoirs at The Homeschool Post! The assignment is to post an old school photo, so I pulled out my senior yearbook and scanned this picture from the senior ads in the back. This was back in the days when I always had a perm.
Planet Photoshop Entry
8/365 Today I'm taking a different spin on Project 365. This photo was taken last summer, but I used it to create this entry for a contest at Planet Photoshop today. I'm thankful that there's no way to see the quantity or quality of the other entries, or I would have...
