We are starting to get back into our regular school routine.  Both boys have done some reading and history work yesterday and today.  We returned our HUGE stack of books about Egypt to the library today, and started collecting ones about Creation.  Ryan was also excited to find many books about skyscrapers during our library visit today.  

Our church activities haven't started back up again, as the church still doesn't have electricity.  We have had Sunday worship services only since the storm.

Through the Storm

Hurricane Ike blew through here late Friday Sept. 12/Early Saturday Sept. 13.  We found ourselves living on vienna sausages and spam, both of which, Johnny and I have determined, are the same meat in different shapes.  God has been good to us, providing a few days of unseasonably cool weather, and then a generator and window air conditioner.  Power was restored last night and we are slowly returning back to normal, whatever that is around here!  Today will be a re-focus day for me, and hopefully we will start back up with school tomorrow.
