Our goats needed a hair cut. To be able to give them a hair cut, we had to buy something that hooked to the fence to help restrain them. You can buy an entire trimming table but those were more expensive. We also had to buy some clippers to cut the goat's hair and some hoof trimmers. The boys gave each goat a bath and then cut their hair and trimmed their hooves. Alex did the cutting and trimming. He did a great job especially since he had never done it before. The goats are still coughing. I guess we just are going to have to deal with it since nothing seems to help. I just want them to be healthy and for me to survive the fair!
Wednesday my meeting was at the church. Our church has a Wednesday afternoon ministry called Kid's Club and this year I am going to be the director. We had a meeting to choose curriculum and make plans for the year. I have been busy this week getting forms typed up and a Facebook page started. Next week I will be getting forms mailed out. I am excited about the new curriculum and hope we will have a great year!
Thursday we went to Texarkana to the dentist. All of the children were cavity free!! Yay!! They did come and get me to ask me to come back so the dentist could show me something (I really did not like the sound of that!) Anthony has 4 baby teeth that are very loose and may be causing problems with his permanent teeth that are coming in. So he has to wiggle them like crazy because if they do not come out on their own in the next month we have to take him back to get them pulled. One came out Saturday so he only has 3 to go.
While we were down there, we took advantage of Kid's Bowl Free and bowled two games. I only had to pay for shoe rental which was $10.50. We also got .50 Frosties from Wendys on the way home.
We had to stop by the school that day as well to turn in the rest of Nick's paperwork, get his ID made, and meet his Robotics teacher.
Friday we went shopping a lit later then usual. Nick and Alex had a 4 H party to go to at 12:45. We ran a few errands, went shopping and dropped them off. It was very hot and humid that day. We ended up getting quite a bit of rain that afternoon after we went back and picked them up.
I was not planning on doing any school this week. We were going to start on the 14th. But Emmie really wanted to do some schoolwork. She wants to be able to read. So I got out her All About Reading Level One. (aff link) The great thing about this program is that they start reading very quickly. After you complete the first two lessons you get to read the first story. She was very proud to read the first story!! She completed lessons 1-4 this week.

When Lily saw Emmie doing schoolwork, she decided she needed to do some too so she got out her new Math Lessons for a Living Education Level 3 book. She completed the first three lessons this week.
I can't believe the rabbit lets her hold it like that!
I have been writing product reviews since 2010. I have written many, many reviews. This week I was very surprised and impressed when I received a Thank You gift from a vendor I did a review for, Adventures of Rush Revere. It was very generous of them to send it and much appreciated!
I hope you had a great week!
Happy Homeschooling!
