In my life this week…

We're full on into Christmas preparations here at The Pelsers. The tree is up. Presents are being carefully selected. Most of all we're counting down until Josh's whole family comes on December 26! The boys are so excited.

In our homeschool this week…

We're in an in-between mode right now. We're working on Christmas things like Truth in the Tinsel and Grapevine Studies Birth of Jesus. (You can get 20% off Truth in the Tinsel using the code THEPELSERS).
