Nutrition Research Project

This week the girls are embarking on a term long project revolving around the meals that people eat. They are extremely thrilled about this program.
  • The goal this week is to develop a form that they will use for background information.
  • Next week they will be mailing you a questionnaire...please fill this out and mail it back to the student who requests your input.

Filos Family Visit













Friday was wonderful....fantastic as Abbee would say. We were fortunate to have found out that Rob and Naomi had their 15Th anniversary on Thursday. Of course we would turn our scheduled play date into a celebration in honor of this wonderful couple! I wish I would have carried the camera around the entire day...but I was enjoying myself chatting with the grownups too much.
CONGRATULATIONS ROB & NAOMI!
All of the children enjoyed the pool and yummy food. Halee and Rebekah were still tired from their youth group trip on Thursday. They traveled to Carowinds for a grand time with great friends. Halee said that the concert was so loud it was like she could feel it inside her chest. (Sounds too loud for me)



First Day of School Aug 09

Journal Entries Photo

Monday was our first day of school. We had a lot of fun. Discussions included our time lines, curriculum, special projects and promotion ceremony. Everyone was so excited....when we were done for the day, they begged to do more. Luckily we are not in short supply of class work. The journal entries seem to be one of the favorite daily activities....we will do that last everyday! ;o) I guess that means MATH will be first...?

Card Board Protest!







Time after time, the girls request my used boxes - trash I say.......T R A S H ! Well, no more! That is Arlee-Jane's new taxi. Cloe made that out of a simple c.b. box. I must say that they have all been driving around the house. Who new that school book packaging could be educational as well?

Piggy Tails...for about 45 seconds











This little boppy is so sweet...too grown looking this way though!

Welcome Home Daddy!





























This was such a trying week for us all without Daddy! We did complete a fun school project to prepare for the arrival. The pictures aren't the best in the world....but the girls had a blast!
