Bigger school room, and about to go to Disney

 Hey everyone, I'm finally blogging again! YAY! I've been busy, and not with anything really interesting. We are about to go to Disney, and I'm currently getting ready, and we had extra school work to do, so we could go.

Jeremy (my husband), had the idea to switch the play room and the school room, and make the school room more of a computer and school room. So that's what we did yesterday. It was very tiring. I made the mistake of staying up until 1am the night before, to finish season 2 of The Game Of Thrones with Jeremy, and I was really tired. (I'm one of those people who like to go to bed at 10pm and no later, so I'm not use to staying up) We got it done though, and this was the end result...



The boys' desks


Numbers on the wall, with the solar system







Found great educational posters at Barns and Noble   




It's much bigger, and I love it.






We are about to go to Disney. We have less than and week, and everyone is super excited. This week I'm going to focus on cleaning the house, and double checking our suitcases. 


Remember this? This was our Disney chain when we first started it, in January 
(I think we started with 36)


This is it now! It's so exciting to see it shrink day by day!
