Our Week in Pictures

Not sure how many of you remember my daughters adventures with pink hair a while back…

image

The color stayed in her hair for over a year!

And stained a few things along the way!

She is finally back to a more natural color and all week she has been telling me she wants to color it blue now, or maybe purple, or possibly red…

Her friend who attends public school, told her she’s not allowed to color her hair until summer, it’s against the rules, then she remembered we homeschool…

image

Few rounds of ping-pong took place.

imageSome attempts to find new planets, stars, etc…but something was “clogging the lens”, so now the telescope is collecting dust in my entryway, along with five billion coats no one wears!

image

Reading…lots of reading this past week!

image

Dreaded worksheets!

image

Clay creations and sewing projects.

image

I told her of a local homeschooling girl who made clothes for her dog; since this is one of my daughters favorite past times and one of our dogs most dreaded duties, she promptly decided she needs to go into business with this other girl, whom she’s never met! Haha!

We went on lots of walks!

Trying to identify plants, not so good yet at this adventure!

Anyone know what this flower is?

Swinging stick weapons in our best rock star pose.

image

Trying to steal sticks away from the dog.

image

 Cruising up the road…we walked a ton this past week!

image

We had friends join us on our walks.

image

Of course we always have play dates with friends!

image

Time for a make over! Boys included, most of the time he is the make up artist or desperately trying to convince them they are beautiful enough to play a game of dead man on the trampoline now!

image

My son has been reading and creating a TON of these “mini weapons of mass destruction!

image

I highly recommend this book! Amazon.com has several from the series. I think the ninja version will be making its way to our house in the near future!

image

Comedy watching her attempt to saddle a tall horse! Especially with a western saddle! The english saddles are much lighter!

image

Tricycles aren’t always for toddlers!

My son found this tricycle at the horse stables and attempted to go down hills fast enough then stand up on the seat. Think there is more practice needed…and maybe a helmet?

image

Love our FLL opportunities!

image

Lego Robotics is a favorite for sure!

image

We also love chess club!

(Which ends with friends and s’mores around the fire)

image

Sidewalk walk chalk is still a ton of fun!

Another past time that isn’t  just for toddlers!

image

Adventure Time is a current favorite.

image

Climbed a few trees, Have I mention I have a couple of monkeys?

image

We ended our week with a Girl Scout camp out.

image

And a great game of “Sharks n Minnows” on an air pad…because camping apparently isn’t all “nature” anymore!?!?

image

Came home, took a nice hot bath to shed camping scuzzzz of our bods and are ready for a nice new week full of new adventures!
