More on the Double Notebook

Well, I purchased another Double Notebook tonight- this time it's in green and blue. I plan to use this one for my lesson plans. I want to put the older children's lessons in the front section and the younger children's lessons in the other section or something like that. I will take pics when I get it completed.
Here's a few pics and one of the upc code.

Camp 08- "Jesus, The Last God Standing!"

God met with us once again this year at camp! God is so faithful! I attended the same camp for the first time when I was 16. God met me there, now 20 years later, my husband and I had the privilege of taking our two older children and the same God who moved in our lives 20 years ago, moved in our children's! He didn't change! Oh, yes He did! He got better!!!! People want to leave legacies to their children-money, popularity, businesses- but there is none greater than salvation & truth! I thank God for having second generation campers.
Here is a short video of the reaction of the Rapture Drill we had while there- there is no sound because it was recorded on my picture camera and I just figured out how to turn the sound on last night-ugh! We had three scriptures to memorize- Isaiah 43:10-11; Psalms 95:6; Deuteronomy 11:16, then attend a showdown class -the theme was centered around Elijah and the prophets of Baal and last, we had class presentations.  When everything was completed, we received our "Holy Ghost Badge" to get to "heaven" when the sound was heard. We had 60 seconds to make it to the sanctuary (heaven) if not, then you were closed outside. If you didn't have all your requirements done and a Holy Ghost badge, then you were left outside, too.
My son had a unique experience. Because of urgency to make it to heaven, my son fell down. The kids didn't trample him or leave him. A group of them picked him up and carried him into heaven and then put him down once they all made it in! How much more should we do for our brothers and sisters in Christ. When they fall, instead of talking about them and putting them down, we should uphold one another in prayer and fasting, so we can all make it in-okay here's the video:

Something New

I went into our local Walmart the other day and was shocked to see school supplies. Not the normal school supplies- the BACK TO SCHOOL supplies and it was only the end of June! Anyway, I just HAD to turn down the aisle to take a look. My daughter was giving me the look and my eyes began to glaze over...I love the smell of a new box of crayons! They smell extra good when they are only $0.20 Okay, okay. The something new I came across was a "Double Notebook". It's pretty neat. I looked for pictures on the web and couldn't find any. Bummer, considering I wanted to share with other mom's that use notebooking and lapbooking to teach their children. To my surprise, my husband got me one tonight! After I showed it to my children, the first thing I did was to take pictures of it! Now I can finally share!

Any ideas of how it can be used?

It costs about $5 and is supposedly only found at Walmart according to the cover.

Right now, we are in a chapter covering early American history and for Bible, we are studying the book of Joshua. I think we will put or history stuff on one side and our Bible lessons on the other. Or I could do Bible and History on one side and lapbooks on the other. Or Bible and history on side one and on side two we could put our timelines, copy work and lapbooks. Or....
