DH's new job here at our new duty station, has him traveling a lot.  Because of this he gets time off to compensate the time gone.  YEA!!  So this means that our homeschooling needs to work around this so that we can spend that time with him.  So, Friday, the kids had a short day and it will be short again on Monday.  We love having fun with DH when he is home.  I think that it is just important as any book work.
