Deuteronomy 6:7 And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.

Chore Charts
I have been looking at a few different chore charts and thought I would share my findings with you.
From PaintedGold.com
Tons of printable charts at ChartJungle, like homework charts, daily schedule, housework, printable games and more.
Print out custom charts at DLTK.
We have discovered that changing things up every now and then helps with motivation. The cute chart that worked a few months ago may have to be revamped or something else take its place. Maybe your incentive program needs tweaking?

CoCo's Photos
Co-Co is experimenting with the camera and trying out some creative stuff with the camera and Photshop. Here is some of his work.
Look closely. Can you guess what it is?
It is the Big Dipper.
He set the shutter speed slower and mounted it on a tri-pod.
Here is another one with the shutter speed even slower.

The Homeschool Buyer Co-op is a free homeschooling organization for both new and veteran homeschoolers. Co-op membership is free and confidential, and entitles homeschooling families to GroupBuy discounts on high-quality curriculum. On the site you'll find lots of free information, such as databases of free curriculum, field trips, and educational contests and scholarships. Highly recommended.
I have enjoyed trying new curriculum this way and often the group price is discounted enough to truly make it worthwhile. Additionally, there are trials so you can try before you commit.
I do appreciate the reviews from parents who have tried the product.
One of my favorite perks are the Homeschool ID cards. I have been able to use these cards to get retailer discounts and for my son who needed a student ID at a testing center.

Airmail!
We got a very scrumptious delivery all the way from across the pond!
My friend sent us a variety of British treats, including Turkish Delight. In one of our favorite books, Chronicles of Narnia, a boy betrays his brother and sisters for some Turkish Delight. We would like to know what kind it was because this tasted much different than the Turkish Delight that we tried at our homeschool group. Nicho said that had come from Turkey.
I loved the Treacle Toffee! MMMM.

Our Honeybees Lapbook
We created this lapbook after a field trip to a bee farm. After the field trip we spent some time learning about bees. We were able to buy some different flavors of honey and then compare the taste. Buckwheat honey was the hands-down favorite of my 3 sons. I liked the orange blossom and daughter liked the clover.
