We close May 8. As I promised my mama, I will split this money b/t myself and my brother and sister. It won't be a lot (it's a mobile home and .5 an acre) but it will definitely help with some pressing bills. We will also pay off our mortgage and begin (finally) to save for a new home.
In other news, homeschool is going along well. I've added some science units (put together and downloaded for free) as well as some US history/state worksheets. I make sure to intersperse the 'learning' pages with 'fun' pages, like word searches, dot to dot, and coloring. He seems to love this approach. I think he'll be more than ready for 2nd grade when October comes. Our year is from Oct 1-Sept 30.
T Ball is going well, Drake seems to really enjoy his games. He's expressed an interest in Tennis (mainly b/c we bought him a MarioTennis Wii game), and wow! our county is offering a 4 day Tennis Camp for K+ next month! I'll send off his registration Monday. This is an answer to prayer, b/c for a great price he can see if Tennis is really something he wants to pursue. Stay tuned!
