    I just ordered everything we are going to need. I can't wait for the UPS truck to pull in the driveway!! I feel like a kid on Christmas morning. I also feel 50lbs lighter...lol. Seems like all I've done the last month is try to make decisions about our curriculum. Everything total was $407 and that's a big chunk of money for us! I think we are going to be pleased with everything. My big purchase was Math U See. I'm the most excited about this. I watched the online demo videos with the kids and they all really enjoyed them. We plan on starting August 10th. All 3 kids are excited to start but that excitement normally wears off with the new lol.

    Anyways I wanted to share my excitement with others who would understand it!!

    Wow, that's pricey. I was so happy when we got all of our materials too.

    Really that's not bad---considering it's for 3 children! It averages out to about $135 per child for a whole year of school!

    I had the opposite reaction...I thought "Wow, that's cheap"...lol. Of course, I remind myself that my Sonlight Cores will be used by 3 kids so the initial price will even out over the years :)

    Congrats on getting everything ordered!

    I didn't think the price was to awful bad either. But I'm sure there are people who hs for a lot less! I'm just not that resourceful lol. My package from Christian Book should be here Tuesday. They ship super fast! I wonder how long it takes Math U See to ship? We made lapbooks yesterday and the kids really enjoyed it! I wish that excitement would last all year!
