Left-Brain, Right-Brain....and Lana's Giveaway!





Well, it happened. Our school started today, here is a link to our online K12 school:


This will be our third year to home school with the online curriculum, and it has been a great fit for our family.
But, now I have to think about things like Algebra, Grammar, Vocabulary, Composition, Literature (actually, I love that subject), Physical Science, Biology, US History, Music, and Art....and Game Design! (My oldest decided to choose "game design" as one of his High School electives!.aaaaaa!)

So, our summer is over and it is time to dust off the left side of my brain, which doesn't get as much use in the summer.



~*~*~*~*~*~




A Giveaway is being held over at Lana's blog....she wants us to list some icons/motifs we like, and use in decorating.
Yes, I had to use my brain a little, but it was a nice warm up for the beginning of the school year!

Click on over to join the fun and sign up for a chance to win one of Lana's original creations!

Hello Suzanne, so hard to believe school is starting...it has started by me last week already. Although the kids here get out of school early in the year so, they start really early.

I know you must start thinking of schoolwork now and other school related things but please always make time to show us your beautiful artwork. : )
