So I just got my computer back after a bit of a hiatus.  I could actually get used to no computer :)  I mean, I miss some things.... but.... well, it's nice to be 'offline' sometimes too.

There's been plenty to do without a computer - August is a BIG EXCITING MONTH around here.  We have house guests now, and again later in the month, and I'm hoping for an official home school start this week, and Isaac will head back to morning preschool and the girls gearing up for the local elementary start date and {I'd better stop here before I think of something else to do before bedtime!}

making welcome posters for our guests

Oh, and my littlest girl turned SEVEN yesterday.  Pics and stories to follow... my head is desperate for my pillow tonight!
