The kids also started memorizing VP Bible cards. 5 times through a day.

We threw in some drawing, reading, Story of the World CD's, hanging outside with the kittens ('cause it's back to gorgeous fall weather) and tons of reading.
Story of the World CD's - MUST HAVE's for anyone who wants to really know history.

The Dishwasher is fixed. Two service calls in a week, 5 total. It's finally draining.
Happy, happy dance. We've dug out from under the dishes.
We are reveling to the sound of the water draining as the washer runs.
Swish, Woosh, Woohoo!1

What age for 42? I have a baseball loving 7 year olsd and Branch Rickey coached at our town's university.
My 10 yo loved it. There's obviously a LOT Of race issues invovled and my 10 yo and 13 yo are still trying to wrap their brains around WHY. It's very clean, other than the degrading racial comments, but they are put into context of not o.k.
Very cool about Branch Rickey! He's a real hero in this movie ; )
I've only heard good reviews of Ender's Game, but that doesn't mean much because...I don't think it means much. :)
Yay for the dishwasher!
Haven't seen Ender's Game - will probably wait til it's on video. I haven't read the Book Thief - is it good?
Oh, am I with you on the dishwasher issue! Our water heater died a few weeks ago and we were without hot water for a week. That was rough.
