August is all loose for us in our home...we don't have too many crazy rules, school is just getting going {pop on over to my
2015-2016 curriculum post and check it out}, we are just going with the flow around here while we get our groove back.

Week four

Most of these {as you can see} are
Pinterest recipes we have yet to try around here. I will post the recipes and links as they are made each day.
**Crafty Goodness**
Craft wise, the girls and I decided to do one craft each month. We will count it as credit for school, but they will do their own work and their own crafts.
In August we wanted to do two because it is such a slow month.
We will be making a set of
coasters for the house using photos and tiles.
Next, the girls will get to make the
letters for their bedroom door.
