Happy New Year and an update

Wow, it's been a few weeks since I posted about our life here.

Well, 2011 started with us moving. In this new year, we have a new home, a new church and a new neighbourhood. Our move on the 1st went well with the help of our brethren. The kids got to stay with some friends and had a grand time. I was sick over Christmas and New Year, so I was not much help, but by the grace of God I was still able to do some of what needed to be done. The whole family actually got some cold at some point during this time period.

Now we are all moved in, mostly unpacked and settled in our new environment, and I can finally take a few minutes to post.

We started back school, after a month off, on Tuesday. The kids actually did well and were quite dilligent. Makes you wonder if long breaks do not have benefits . . .

Our schedule changed a bit as my hubby's day off is going to be Thursday now. So, instead of Monday, there won't be any school on Thursday.

Hopefully I'll be posting a bit more in the coming days. I am sorry to my blogosphere friends for the lack of comments, it's been busy. My reader is full, I am scared to even look at it. On top of this I really want to focus more on schooling (instead of reading about others schooling, which I love to do  . . .), and keeping the house in order. Hopefully I'll get to visit you still though.

In the mean time I wish you all a Happy New Year filled with God's blessings and care.

Happy New Year to you, too! I'm your newest rss feed follower! Thanks for visiting today. We started school back last week and it was a struggle (and we only took off 2.5 weeks)! We haven't had complete school this week either due to the snow storm that struck NW GA. ~ Ellen

Glad you and the family are all feeling better. Also glad that you are all moved and settled. I understand about wanting to read and visit everyone. It is so hard. However, we must concentrate on our schooling as well! Blessings!

Reformation Day Giveaway

We are approaching October 31, which is an important date for all protestants. This date commemorates Martin Luther’s nailing of his ninety-five theses to a church door on October 31, 1517 in Wittenburg, Germany, which in turn provoked a debate that resulted in what we now call the Protestant Reformation. As the “Father of the Reformation”, Martin Luther is a vital figure in Church History. His sacrifice and willingness to wage battle against the spiritual, religious, and political powers of his medieval world allowed Christians throughout time to embrace the following truths: salvation by grace alone , through faith alone,  and in Christ alone, along with the supremacy of Scripture, referred to as  Scripture alone, and all of it for God's Glory Alone. These being commonly called the Five Solas of the Reformation.  Danika Cooley, author and creator of the Bible curriculum Bible Road Trip ,  has recently written a book for young people recounting Luther's sto...
