Field Trip






We headed to Paducah on Friday for a field trip. Jamie was off on Spring Break, so it was a good time to head out and do something fun. We went to the River Discovery Center at Paducah on the riverfront. It was kind of neat to learn all about the rivers. We took a stroll along looking at the murals that have been painted on the river wall and looked at the old train that was sitting there too. We did find a little ice cream shop, which the kids enjoyed. It was a fun day. It could have been a little warmer, but no complaints!

26 more days of school for our homeschool!!!!! That lands us in the middle of the second week of May. Yay! Of course, even though we are off for summer "break" we are still going to keep up with our math skills (through fun games), reading, and typing. They are OK with that:-)

On another note, you can read Jamie's blog about our movie incident. The Better Business Bureau was contacted and they have already contacted him and now we wait and see how he'll respond. It is horrible the way that people treat their consumers, but it is kind of funny now that it is over. We actually got "kicked out" of a place of business. It is kind of laughable. All we did was ask 'why' when he didn't accept our gift certificates, which his signature was on. I truly believe that we could have gone on another weekend and chosen another movie and he would have cooked up another excuse. Kind of makes me wonder if he is stealing, but I guess we'll never know that part.

It was too hard to be too upset, because we received an answer to prayer that same day. I sat here Saturday morning going through medical bills, looking at our budget, and beginning to wonder how it would all get worked out. I just prayed for some answers and about 2 hours later, we got a phone call from our accountant that was very good! Exactly what we needed! God is always good and somehow I still worry and fret. Why is that?
