*You have arrived at Collage Friday - the format is just a bit different this week! Link up is at the end of this post.
There has been much excitement in our house this week.
God is working and present in the events of the week. I have NO doubt.
It all started last weekend, as my husband and I attended Blogging Concentrated.

A full week of no school has been just what the doctor ordered.
The kids have been working SO HARD, and when I stopped to relax I realize I had been working hard, too.
Dad was working this week so the kids and I spent our mornings sleeping in and our days reading, relaxing, and doing things we enjoy.
I like this idea of schooling for 6 or 7 weeks and then taking a full week off, and I'm glad our Classical Conversations community has a calendar that follows this schedule.

We're finding our way with Classical Conversations -- learning simple ways to expand upon the memory work, and also learning that sometimes the memory work in Foundations really is ENOUGH.
The first 6 weeks has ended and I'm BLOWN AWAY by what both of my children have learned since we started. I cannot stop singing the praises of CC to everyone we know.
Next week we will be on a fall break - one whole week of no schoolwork. I'm looking forward to the break, because it has been a BUSY 8 weeks since we began in August.
