Good morning!  Wednesdays are a big day for the kids.  They've got co-op and church.  I always look forward to both because all of us get so much out of it!  Co-ops are a great resource for homeschooling families.  Wednesday night services at church always help me to refresh, reflect on my week.  =)

Oh, and the dogs are going to the groomers.  How could I forget that?  They're some stinky dogs at the moment!  I know, I should probably groom them myself, but sometimes you have to choose your battles.  lol  I'll go without getting my hair "did" this month~

We're trying to grow new plants and use different types of containers to do so.  One thing we're trying is growing potatoes in a recycled bushel container.  I punched holes in the bottom for drainage.  If (keeping my fingers crossed) this works, the vines should look really pretty coming out of the top.  I put a layer of organic container soil (not potting soil, container soil!) in the bottom, placed the seed potatoes on that and then covered with another layer of soil.  We'll see what happens!
