    That was an amazing year full of adventure! You have inspired me to keep track of our field trips better this year. I miss roller skating. I went roller skating often with my best friend when I was much younger. Alyssa had the opportunity when she was a wee thing but I think she forgot the experience. I will have to ask her later. Thank you for sharing. I also participated in the blog cruise. You can check out our look back at 2012 here http://totplay.blogspot.com/2012/12/a-photographic-walk-down-memory-lane.html. I am now following your blog. Happy New Year and God bless!

For the last couple of week Captain America has really been enjoying this really cool picture book full of bible stories. Captain America has really loved these stories. In fact the very day this book came in the mail he made Dad read it from cover to cover. Just about every day since, he has convinced someone to read at least one to him. The stories are all told in rhyme which make them really fun to read as well as listen to. The pictures are also very bright and fun. The book retails for $14.99 it's marketed for ages 4-8 and it makes the perfect book for bedtime. You can check out the book trailer below...

This is my first time participating in this blog party so I am kind of nervous... You know the walk into a room and not knowing any one kind. I am originally from England and have lived in the States for the last 14 years. My husband is also from England and so although out children were all born here.

The hats normally only come out for Halloween though. We starting homeschooling about two years ago when Jam was starting 5th grade and Boo 3rd. We love it. At the time we had chickens and bunnies - however we recently gave them to a friend who has a farm since we are trying to relocate closer to my husbands work. (He commutes an hour each way.) So my blog name makes me chuckle it should now be Homeschool but NO chickens and bunnies. I am excited to meet new friends. Leave me a comment to say Hi. ...
