Week 9 and 10

Well, I forgot to write at the end of week 9 and by the time I remembered, it was already Thursday of week 10.  Oh well!  Not much to report anyway.  Everything is moving along.  The kids are doing great with math.  I really am proud of both of them.  We're getting in a groove with the new science curriculum.  We are studying Ancient Rome in history.  We read a story about a ship captain who took on board chickens because he thought they were "sacred".  LOL  SACRED CHICKENS!!!  The chickens ended up getting sea sick, so he threw them overboard.  Of course, since these were "sacred" chickens, it made the gods angry and he lost the battle.  HAHA  We all had a belly laugh over that one!  Oh yeah!  We did have a little bit of excitement around here when I found a dead squirrel on the patio!  Not sure what happened to the little fella, but one down 50 million more to go!  Guess where we disposed of the body (remember the snake =) and by "we", I mean my dad, no way I was touching that thing) !
