Wordless Wednesday: March 14, 2012 (w/linky) Our First Box Day!

A little more wordy this week than I have been lately. These pictures are from Friday. This was our first "box day" which for some homeschoolers is a big deal. Getting your curriculum in this great big box delivered to you is like a present to be opened. Tabitha is going to be in Kindergarten next fall (or whenever I finally get organized and get us started). We have switched from the Five in a Row that we started last year to go with My Father's World. And this is what we found on Friday:



Big sissy helping get the big heavy box inside because mommy still isn't supposed to be lifting heavy things.

So we swept the kitchen in order to be able to open the box on the floor. I decided dragging it all the way to the living room wasn't feasible.





Guess what the girls had the most fun with (after seeing everything that was enclosed in the box).





I got the Preschool Curriculum:


And the Kindergarten Curriculum 




Then I packed it all back away, except for my teacher's manual and the student sheets I want to go through.

    Awww that's great to see them so excited! Getting school books is always fun. I order ours in April because we buy A Beka and they do free shipping for homeschoolers that month.
    Thanks for the linky!

    My girls love when we get big packages too - so they can play with the box, paper and bubble wrap, etc.

    So exciting! We just ordered their K program for my youngest. She can't wait to start. I'm not sure if we will wait until fall or not since she is SO anxious to start it! I'm excited about their curriculum and thinking we may end up using it for all of my kiddos.
