4th of July Recap-

There was some disappointment this evening as our fireworks were cancelled due to wind.  Not sure if they will be rescheduled or not.  I am thankful that we went and watched fireworks on Saturday and Sunday.  :)  


The day went well, we invited the youth group over for a BBQ and even though the event became an indoor event due to the extreme hot temps and humidity.  So glad we have a basement!!!  WHOO HOO


We did have one scare today!  I had to make my first poison control phone call.  I let the kids and youth group have some glow sticks and I must have gotten a bad pack because mine broke and then a little bit later my lil man's broke and it squirted him in his eye!!  Talk about freak out!!!  I felt terrible as I started running to the bathroom to find the water fountains since we were at a park.  He could not open his eyes.  I quickly flushed his eyes out and I'm sure my husband was praying as I was taking care of him.  After I flushed it I called poison control and they recommend flushing for a good 15 minutes so we left the park and I put lil man in the shower.  He seemed fine but that was scary!  


How did your 4th of July go??  I hope no phone calls like mine!


I had a big laugh when I looked back at last years 4th of July post.  Go look at my cute kids:  Happy 4th of July 2011!

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

Description: The first book in  The Reading Game  learn-to-read series tells the story of a skunk without a stripe who is rejected by the other skunks but finds acceptance among some cats and becomes their defender.  It’s told in rhyme, is beautifully illustrated, and is 32 pages long.  It will be the first book the student reads, and there are five more to follow in this groundbreaking learn to read program. Each of The Reading Game's six stories is told using just thirty new words.  These are broken down into six sets of five words.  The student learns to read each set of five words by playing a simple word matching game.  Frequent exposure through play hard wires these words into long-term memory.  Rote learning is transformed into a fast-paced game with a winner every few seconds. After completing Skunk, Game 1, the student has learned five words (can, cat, is, me, not).  Playing Game 2 adds an additional five w...

Common Mistakes Made When Writing a Will

  Writing a will should, by all means, be a simple thing. You want to make sure that your assets are being left to your loved ones and that your final wishes are being fulfilled. Usually, they are rather straightforward, but that doesn’t mean that they are entirely foolproof. Here, we’re going to look at some common issues that can lead to disputes or delays in carrying out your will. Image - CC0 License Not Having It Witnessed Correctly One of the most common mistakes when writing a will is not having it witnessed correctly. Wills generally require the signatures of at least two witnesses who are not beneficiaries or spouses of beneficiaries. If the will is not witnessed in accordance with legal requirements, it may be declared invalid, meaning your estate would be distributed according to intestacy laws, which may not align with your wishes. It’s important to follow the witnessing procedures exactly as outlined in your jurisdiction to ensure the will is legally enforceable. Chan...
