We finished school Friday, so today was our first official day off. And what did we do? Go to the library, of course. All our things have been renewed once already, putting the due date the Monday after Christmas weekend. I surely will feel less up for a trip to the library then than I did today. I checked out a few books for myself, mostly non-school related. I really enjoy Jan Karon's writing style and I'm waiting for the library to have her newest book in the Father Tim series. So I settled for re-reading Shepherds Abiding over the next few weeks. Tera and Daniel watched Jesus: The Nativity while I laid on the couch and dozed after reading one chapter in a How'd They Do That? book on Elizabethan England. I've always loved that time period.
We've discovered 3-D snowflakes and how easy they are to make. I found this step by step instruction guide. Saturday morning found us occupied with this gigantic creations.
