Journal and a Holiday Newsletter link

In my life this week… 
We finally entered the future and bought smartphones!  Woohoo!  We have HTC Rezounds.  I'm hooked.  It is so nice to have it at work for last minute emails, to check the road conditions, and I LOVE Google's navigation.  I'm saying goodbye to our old GPS in favor of maps that never need updating!
In our homeschool this week…
 I am trying something new.  I am letting Sebastian decide what days to have off of school work. So far Sebastian picked Tuesday as a day off, but we also lost Thursday for a Christmas luncheon and Friday for my own sanity. I'm going to see how other weeks go before I pull the plug on this idea.


Places we’re going and people we’re seeing… 
 Sunday I have my first student recital!  I am excited (and a little bit nervous).  I am sure they will all do fine.  They have worked hard and they have me accompanying on the piano, so what could go wrong?  If they mess up they can just blame the pianist!

Things I’m working on… 
 Organization.  Right now the homeschool/music/office is a mess.  I need to organize it again.  That's on my Saturday agenda.
 A photo, video, link, or quote to share…
I finished our newsletter!  It includes a video of pictures from the entire year, links to blog posts, "favorite" posters about the kids, and other stuff.  I am proud of how it turned out.  I hope our family likes it too! Check it out here: Our 2011 Newsletter
