Indian Reports
This year we're studying California History. At co-op the kids wrote a paper on a California Indian Tribe and did an oral report. I love co-op for many reasons but one being that they can do oral reports and "perform" things in front of an audience. I've always felt strongly about being able to speak well and present yourself well in front of others. This gave them a great chance to practice and they had a ball too!
Cookin' at School
Jill Howie helped the kids make fried plantains for spanish class. They tasted SOOOOO yummy!
Mom Time!!!
Last month my friends took me to Leonesse and a movie for my birthday. It was SOOOOO much fun that we decided to make it a monthly tradition.
Our amazing view.
Taking Care of Friends
Christopher Roman had his surgery and it's been really hard on Eddie and Carri. Poor Christopher wakes up every few hours (so his parents do too), and he's having a tough time eating. We went to get the boys from Carri so she could have a break and sleep when Christopher sleeps. The boys ended up spending the night which the kids we're thrilled about. Here they are eating breakfast before church. They always have so much fun together.
More Art
We met the Parson Family at Leonesse. The adults had fun relaxing while the children drew the grapevines and then ran through the vineyard. We are so blessed to live in such a beautiful place.
Nathaniel and Liberty love to play together.
Budding Artists
We try to go out every week and work on our art skills. This week we went to Harveston Lake. Harveston is beautiful and has so many different forms of nature to draw. It was a fun evening...
Liberty draws too. Just not in this picture.
Chad tries to read The Word as the sun is setting.
