For fear of waxing philosophical on turning the big 3-0, I have not blogged in a while. Feeling "so done" with the birthday, I am ready to move on. Thirty is sort of an odd birthday. Not old, not young, not midlife...feeling a little in limbo. I was never very good limbo. HaHa!
I've finally made the decision about our math. We will be using Singapore Math http://www.singaporemath.com/ - it is concept based, encourages individual thought, and for the beginning grades, it has these excellent math "readers" that tell math stories. Cool! We will be using a Charlotte Mason model for everything else. There are several sites with on-line curriculum for Charlotte Mason, on that I like, in particular, http://www.livingbooks.com/ - but it is quite spendy. YIKES!
We are speedily trying to finish the chicken coop, as the girls are now in the window where we could start seeing eggs anyday now. HURRAY! We have to finish the chicken coop, so we can finish the goat house, so we can pick up the goats! I'll post some pictures of the three girls we are getting hopefully at the end of the month.

Monday, at Tae Kwon Do, Justin and I recieved our "real" blackbelts. It is embroidered with our names, and the name of our Master Instructor. It's really a lovely little thing. So much work for a piece of fabric.

Hehehe I really like Isla! She looks like my kind of goat ;)
Yum...Goat Cheese. We should get the kids together this fall and make apple butter...and goat cheese. I'm sure Ayden would have fun at the Murdock Family petting zoo. When we get off the mountain I hope to get a couple of sheep so we can pool our resources and have a real petting zoo.
