And with our younger guys winning their competition (actually their two teams won 2nd and 3rd, with an average winning 1st over the other churches) and our (first ever) winter competition win, we totally swept the year. That is as good as I ever hoped for for my last year of being able to do this. 
The worst of it lasts approximately from Mother's Day through Father's Day, although I still a bit of trouble later than that when I mow and have a ton of cut grass blowing around me.The Kings Daughter wrote:Laura, how long do your allergies usually last?
I read this, and I thought you wrote 'candles' so I was quite confused why you were talking about fudge and marshmallows.Laura Ingalls wrote: This week I'll be busy making new candies for market...I'm sold out of all my fudges, gummy squares, and marshmallows, so I have a lot to do this week. Which is unfortunate, since all this week is supposed to be quite rainy/high humidity, and candy is not supposed to be made on those kinds of days.
I'm glad it sounds like you all had a fantastic time, Dan. ^.^
And it's easier when you have a brother nearby to empty the bag repeatedly. ^_^ If you get a chance, I'd love to see pictures of what you make again. 
It's great you get the summer off. He's really amazing. 
Eating tacos could be a bit of a problem though...
Aw, I hope you have a good day SunnySunshine wrote:I'm not exactly looking forward to tomorrow: going to the dentist to get a cavity filled. But after that we're going to the 2nd annual family picnic with our Bible study group.
So, thankfully it's over. I barely past though, one of the boys and I got the exact score and... it was the worst you could get without failing....all that studying and I barely past. 
Today was awesome though. After class most of us hung out talking/saying goodbye/waiting for parents/taking pictures. Then afterwords three of the girls from class, and I went to Steak 'N Shake. Ahhh, today was so amazing.

YAY!!God's Daughter wrote:I PASSED MY DRIVERS TRAINING TEST!! I.AM.DONE!
I'm sure you all are sick of me talking about drivers training.
I know I was sooooo relieved to pass my test, I'm so glad you passed yours 
I am currently sitting on the couch of the family whose house I am taking the tests at studying for the ACT. I cannot wait 'til all these tests and ACT/SAT are over with! So much stress. Aaah... 
Also my poor mom is sick with the shingles. If you haven't had them NEVER get them. They are awful, it's basically open sores and a rash that cause a LOT of pain. It does not look fun at all. 
Best part sometimes. ^_^ Times like that with friends and God are amazing.:American Eagle wrote:On the last night, I stood in a huddle with two of my best friends and we prayed... unforgettable.
Glad it was a good trip! Survive them, darling.Joanne wrote:I'm taking lots of tests today. It's the usual end of the year standard tests for homeschoolers. Fun, fun.

Take care and get better, silly boy, er, respectable Mayor. I don't even know who they are, frankly, but do take pictures!Joy wrote:Uh, I'm meeting Prince Charles and the Duchess today in Toronto!
Oh.Joy wrote:I don't have a camera. So, no pictures!
Prince Charles? He's the heir to the throne! And the Duchess is his wife.
There are going to be TV crews about, so I'm going to try and get an interview. If I do, then hopefully it'll come online, and I'll be able to show you guys. But, it'll be unlikely. Still, I'm hopeful!
This is how much I keep up with royalties. Hope you have a good time!
