"Roses are Red"..... or Pink.

Last Day of School..... Say Hello to Summer!!!!!!!

School is over for the summer, for both school kids and homeschoolers! We do school through the summer, mainly reading and writing. Though we are looking forward to, swimming, socializing, and enjoying God's creation as well! What are you doing this summer?????

For Me and My Gal... A classic!!!!

 We watched this awesome movie, it is such a classic! For Gene Kelly's first movie,it was phenomenal!

 Gene and Judy were so great together in this film. It is about Judy and Gene who are both vaudevillians.....

Gene wants Judy as a partner for an act he wants to try, reluctant as Judy is they end up getting together....

They work their way up until they are about to play at the palace when Gene gets his draft notice as WW1 springs up. Gene(not wanting to go) smashes his hand in his trunk, hoping not to go. Judy's brother(who entered the war) dies and she feels her duty to serve. Getting angry at Gene, they split!  Soon after in Paris, they meet up. Gene talks to Judy(very touching part) and leaves saying that his one victory was that she was once his girl.

 In the end, Judy(as WW1 sweet heart) sings at the Palace, whereas Gene is there watching. She points during her song at him, and runs into his arms. After which, the orchestra plays the theme song. And Gene and Judy together sing on stage in eachother's arms. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh

The front cover. This is a totally classic Gene Kelly and Judy Garland movie. The ending is so touching that it will make you want to cry( I have).  

The theme song in the movie. ENJOY!!!!!!!!



Signing off :Sapphire:

Out and about.

 We had a girl's afternoon with our Mom, and our first stop was Joann's fabric store. Our little sister Goosie girl enjoyed looking through the idea books.

 Oh No!!!!! Don't get girl's into a craft store! Pirate-rock stars Hair Stylist and Tapper being silly(ha ha).

 Ahhhhhhhhhhhh. Little Goosie girl joined in the fun as Jessie the cowgirl!

 Afterward we went to lunch at a deli. We ordered 2 different types of sandwiches, Italian Sub, and Sand Dunes(which is the sandwich shown here. It had avocado, Swiss cheese, and some kind of meat).

YEAH!!!!!! Coca Cola, what gets better than that.

Hair Stylist and I before the freezer where we picked out our pop. It was a nice day even though it was cloudy.

Tangled!

 We enjoyed watching this movie with our siblings. It has such a cute premise and the characters are all great.

 Rapunzel! A sweet, modest, cute young woman who has never been out in the world, and yet knows how to be a tough girl.
 .

 Now Flinn or Eugene is a exasperated guy who just wants to get out of the deal. But he has a good side as you can tell from this picture.

 He has many talents too, and he is quite the counselor.

And at last the two together! What a sweet couple. Rapunzel's hair is sooooooo amazing with all of the flowers. What did you all think of the movie?Comment below!

Happy Memorial Day!

Let us all remember those who died for the sake of keeping our country safe, for the men and women who gave up their lives to keep our freedom! May God give those with lost ones comfort and peace on this day of rememberance.

"I have no illusions about what little I can add now to the silent testimony of those who gave their lives willingly for their country. Words are even more feeble on this Memorial Day, for the sight before us is that of a strong and good nation that stands in silence and remembers those who were loved and who, in return, loved their
countrymen enough to die for them.......

As we honor their memory today, let us pledge that their lives, their sacrifices, their valor shall be justified and remembered for as long as God gives life to this nation. And let us also pledge to do our utmost to carry out what must have been their wish: that no other generation of young men will every have to share their experiences and repeat their sacrifice......"

Chocolate covered Strawberries!

 For our little brother's birthday(Music Man), he requested that he would like some chocolate covered strawberries. I(Sapphire) was given the( hard, exhausting, task). Ha just kidding! It was a very yummy job, cause I was able to have lots of" accidental" chocolate licks.

As you can see this was my finished product! They turned out soooooooooo yummy. "Did you know that you never put chocolate covered strawberries in the freezer. If you do, that is why when you pull them out and leave them on the counter, they start to kind-of- shrivel up."
