We made it out to the Learning House homeschool store on Sat.  I've been wanting to visit there for a long time now and since they were having their yearly yard sale it was the perfect time! 

We arrived about mid morning and I found lots of great stuff on the clearance tables.  I had to be strong LOL.  I picked out the Five In A Row Holiday book and a human body activity booklet.  Then went on to get the other things on my list.  They had a nice play area set up for the kids and comfy chairs to.  So dh was happy to sit and play with the kids while I looked around. 

I made one change to my plans this year.  I'm going to use the Exploring Creation with Botany with Botany instead of God's Design.  I have been looking over the samples of them for a while and really liked it when I got to sit and peek through.   I wont need to supplement it at all unless I want to.  With the GD book I would have had to do all the lessons from supplemental books to fit my children's ages.   And I love the project ideas, it fits in well with our notebooking/lapbooking love.

I also picked up the following that were on our list:

• Christian Liberty Nature Reader 1
• Bob Books #1
• Leading Little ones to God
• FIAR Christian supplement
• Before FIAR
• Canada My Country
• Ecoutez! Parlez!  Book/cd 1

I also picked out some of the story books for B4 FIAR that we needed and dh picked out a really nice story bible for dd6.

After we were finished there we walked down to the big craft show that was going on that weekend.   It was huge!  We had to be really strong there were so many nice things LOL.  We did buy each of the girls a nice kerchief though as they all managed to forget their hats.  We had a nice lunch and lessoned to some of the music playing.
