End of another school year! :)

Last Friday marked another end of the school year for us. I am so proud of the kids-they worked hard all year long.

So I had the bright idea of making a "Summer Bucket List."  I asked all the kids to write down some things they want to do this summer (within reason) and I was surprised to find out that 2 of the 4 want a tree house/fort. Looks like I have some planning to do.

All of them listed going to play with new friends..hmmm..guess home school kids do socialize after all. They have followed the rules so far, I haven't gotten any weird requests like Disney or bungee jumping. Although my daughter did ask to go to some outdoor music festival that has several bands. Oh how I miss the days of Disney stars/shows. Now it is bands like Falling In Reverse and people who growl instead of sing. :/

So here is a toast (raises glass of tea) to the start of summer-Hot day, warm nights and the sounds of frogs and crickets!

I hope everyone enjoys a little safe fun this summer.

The Blue Fire Saga- book review

I had to post about one of my favorite authors, Mr. Scott Prussing.

I am an official Twi-nerd with no shame to admitting it. It was a fellow Twilight fan who introduced me to Breathless-the first book in the series. It was so interesting I had to read it in one sitting and ordered the next books as they were available.

Who doesn't like the world of the supernatural? This book is complete with humans, vampires, volkanes, wizards, (takes a deep breath) love, action, mystery--everything you could ask for in one series including a one-fanged vampire.

So you may ask yourself-eh-what makes this different from other books on the market these days?
I can tell you the major difference-Mr. Scott! He has a great interaction with his fans! There are not a whole lot of authors that you can ask a question about the books and actually get an answer-but he does. :)

He also has other books outside of the Blue Fire Saga-all are worthy of reading.  I am including some links below to give more information.
I would encourage all who read this to read his works-start with Breathless and you'll be hooked too!

Thanks for tuning in....
