HSMJ The one about roses, new books and Homeschool Chicks

In my life this week…
It's been a great week catching up with family and friends.  My sister is going on the trip of a lifetime and is going to be stopping in New York.  Can you recommend any places for them to go ? They will be there for two days.  I went with a friend to the State Rose Gardens this week and the roses are all in bloom it was wonderful!

      2. Beautiful roses! The colors! Roses are just perfect in so many ways! And the smell!

        Heading over to check out your free homeschooling links. I also have some on a tab under my banner if you want to check them out as well. Perhaps we can share something new with each other! LOL

      3. I think the best way to learn about Twitter is to just use it. It seemed very foreign to me when I first started, but using it helped it make perfect sense to me. That's my 2 cents!!!

        Thanks for linking with Collage Friday :-)
