Since school has started we are very busy with getting our assignments done for ECC classes (Ellie with Physics, Clara with Biology and Spanish, Mom teaching Economics and Quilting.)
But here is a quote from doing Algebra this spring - Mom said it to me (Ellie) while she was helping me with Algebra: "You need to challenge your brain. It will become mush if you do not use it."
September 28th (this Tuesday!) is Dad's birthday. This Saturday we had dinner with our friends the Braleys, and celebrated Dad's birthday, and on Sunday (today) we ate delicious barbecue ribs for his birthday. Later this evening some friends brought us a lemon cheesecake pie as a surprise! which was very nice, and we sort of had it as for Dad's birthday also.
Also Melissa came home to visit from DBU, where she is going to school. She brought some of her friends too, and it was nice to meet them.
On Friday night I (Ellie) babysat the Fletcher kids with three of my friends, Emily, Jenny, and Sharlena. Maybe the more babysitters you have, the more fun you have, because we sure had a great time!
On Thursday we went to a birthday celebration for Uncle Kevin with his family and some other friends.
