LOST Season Finale Party



Well, I personally can't remember ever having a party for a TV show, but tonight we are. It's the season finale of LOST and my hubby and I are soooooo addicted that we can hardly wait. We usually have to tape the shows and watch them later because Thursday is our college ministry night. Tonight however we decided to do something totally different (since there are so many fans in that group) and host a party at our house. I'm looking forward to it (as long as they all don't *talk* through the show!). So I'll be busy all day getting the house cleaned and some snacks made... How about you? Are you a total LOST addict? Here's a good place to catch up on some fun facts if you are--or want to be. And for some real fun, check out Sawyer's nickname generator! I'm *Farah*:)

And to add a fun *twist* to the day....my hubby did something to his foot last night playing basketball. So now he's off to the doctor to have an x-ray to see if it's broken, cracked, sprained or just bruised. He's really hobbling around, poor guy. Somehow he always manages to injure himself right before we're hosting a party at our house. The last time was at Christmas when we were having all of our youth coaches from church over for a big bash. He threw his back totally out--yep, you guessed it--playing basketball again! Some of us just don't learn from our experiences, do we? ha!

**Edited: Vince doesn't have a broken foot, just torn ligaments and a sprained ankle. So hopefully within a couple of weeks he'll be much better. Thank the Lord!

You'd think he'd get a clue and knock off the b-ball. To the best of my memory, every major injury he's had in the last several years has been somehow related to basketball. =) **sigh** Oh, well! Glad it's not broken.

Oh, btw...I'm Ladybug. You know? I actually wouldn't really mind that one. =)

Torn ligaments???? Yuck! That's painful, no? Well, at least it is not broken. Thanks for the update. Sorry I missed the party. Hope it was fun.

Rees & I are both huge Lost fans! A Lost party sounds like so much fun. I took the nickname quiz, and I'm Sticks! Hmmm, what's with that! LOL!

A Lost party sounds like fun! I sure was worried about Sawyer there for awhile. I would have been so upset if he hadn't made it back to the beach!

Lora,

Hope Vince heals quickly. What a bummer.

Oh yes, I'm a LOST fanatic! I tried the Sawyer name generator and got all sorts of wacky results. My favorite was Rinse and Repeat! LOL! (My least favorite was Skeletor and Lightbulb!)

Those cookies look YUM-Mee!

Bless you.

The Reading Game: A Review

I was excited to receive this review product recently, thinking my 1st-grade-son could really benefit and enjoy it a lot. And I was right! He is having so much fun with this game. The Reading Game is a fast-paced memory card game using words. The game comes with 6 sets of memory cards with 6 corresponding readers. The idea is for you and your student to play memory with each set of cards (playing 6 rounds with each set), after every 2 rounds your student then reads 2 test sentences to see how he is retaining the new words he is learning. After the whole set has been played, he is then ready to read the corresponding reader...and has learned 30 new words! By the time your student has played every set of cards and read every reader, he will have learned 180 words. Of the 25 most common English words, 23 are on that list; of the 50 most common words, 42 are on that list. So this little game of reading really does prepare your student well. The readers are illustrated with cute

The Making of an Egyptian Death Mask

We are learning all about the ancient world this year with Story of the World I and loving it! We've been learning a lot about Egypt, of course, which is completely fascinating. Most recently we have studied the New Kingdom of Egypt, which includes the story of King Tut. So we decided making an Egyptian death mask in the style of King Tut's would be a fun project. First since it was too cold at the time to paper mache in the garage (it probably would have frozen instead of dried-ha) and it was too messy to do it in the house, we decided to pick up a couple of cheap craft masks at Hobby Lobby. Next we cut out cardboard shapes to complete the shape of the death mask, attaching them with hot glue. Vince even put a little detail on the *beard* with the hot glue per The Princess' request. Then the kiddos started to paint them with this metallic gold tempera paint. It worked okay for the cardboard, but would not coat the plastic of the mask. We thought maybe a second coat

Door Hanger Chore Charts

My kids have had a chore chart for a while.  It's one of those magnetic boards and they share it.  However, it's not by their rooms and often they (and I) forget to update it.  Plus it's a little bulky.   When I saw the concept of a door hanger chore chart on Pinterest, I loved it!  It was compact, right there were the kiddos could see it coming out and going into their rooms, and it costs almost nothing to make.   I headed over to one of my favorite stores: Hobby Lobby, of course.  They  have these little wooden door hangers for .79.  I also grabbed a couple of packets of decorative buttons for $1.99 each.  I already had the clothes pins and the paint so those cost me nothing.   I began by painting the door hangers (I used tempera paints because that's what I had).  Then I grabbed a fine point Sharpie and the clothes pins and started writing chores on them, making sure to write them correctly so they will clip on the right direction.   The left
