There's No Place Like Home!

Yes, it is true... We are home again!--and so happy to be here!

I have much to write about to put some closure on the trip, but it is late and I am tired from another day of traveling today, so it will have to wait until tomorrow.

I have already been formulating some assignments for our children, however, to help them process our month-long trip:

  • First, we will trace our journey on a U.S. map with a highlighter. (This will be especially good for our 3rd grader who is still learning the states and where they are.) I will also print thumbnail photos of each location and have Jenna put them on the map where they belong.

  • Second, they will be instructed to put a closing entry in their road trip journal, writing about those experiences that impacted them the most.

  • And finally, we will work on a family scrapbook together, complete with their comments and artwork. (That one may take some time!)

    My husband has suggested I write a short book about our road trip experience. I will have to give that some thought...!

    Your husband is a very bright man! You should definitely consider writing a book about the trip. :-)

    How do you print the sheet of thumbnail photos? I tried to do that, but although I am looking right at them, my computer prints each one out full sized. I don't see a "print thumbnails" choice anywhere.
