…we stopped at so many places… One of the places was Louisville, Kentucky. Home of the world’s LARGEST bat. One of my objectives of homeschooling is to stop at everything that is the World’s Largest. (Must be a Texas’ thang.) {My spell check suggested THONG for thang. No, Mr. Spellchecker, it’s THANG.} It was COLD and we had not expected the change in temperature this quickly. So, the baby had to be wrapped in his blanket because we couldn’t find…

(BTW – I’m not a Saints fan. I’m actually…

My parents kept 4 of my 5 children, what a precious gift! We will get back in the car on Saturday and pick them up. (Another 7 hours in the car.) Until then I have so much to do. I still have to put up my fall decor and then find my Christmas stash. It is going to be so simple…
