A World without walls
everyday life while homeschooling overseas
While we were in the states this past fall, we came home to find that Josh's room had had a transformation...they had taken out his ENTIRE wall closet! Apparently, it was leaking water behind the false wall, and there was serious amounts of mold and nastiness there! Bleh! They said they wanted to do Claire's closet, too, but that they'd wait until we were gone in the spring. Well, Claire's closet started to have some issues...like mushrooms growing inside of it, and cockroach nests all over! AH!!! So, we told them maybe it would be better to start that right now! So they did! Here are some pics of what it looked like during the entire week they worked on it! The false wall was so wet, they just peeled it away! There were HUGE cockroach nests coming from the ceiling. Ugh. It was SOOOO gross! But now, the giant chunks of missing cement are patched up, the mold has been cleaned off and covered with Kilz (the awesomest mold-killing paint EVER), the cockroach nests have been destroyed, and Claire's room is clean and inviting! So happy!!

Emily's books
by Dan Brown
I like that the plot twists and turns a lot...and it makes you think. However, I don't appreciate Dan Brown's endings in his books. I find the endings incongruent with the rest of his stories--why make it a romance for the last chapter...

I loved this book. I'm a sucker for fairy tales/fantasy. This was so well written! I can't wait to read all the rest of her books!

I'm reading this one again. I liked it the first time I read it. I'm still liking it for the second time around. I like all of Shannon Hales' books.
**Still lots of fun the second time around! I do like this book for a comfortable...
