Monkey

This week we did lots of things.
One day we decided to play educational games instead of bookwork.
~
We also had National Pizza Day as part of our journaling.
~
Ryan did a report on the elements and she chose Oxygen.
~
Kailen's freshwater ecosystem.


~

Ryan's real life habitat.

~

She made a trap and caught a crawfish.


~

After a serious infection, Sugey was well enough to visit the creek again. I'm so glad he is ok.

~
An unknown flower that Kailen managed to "borrow" from our neighbor.


~
Daryn worked on her balloon car project for school.


~


She had a lot of fun making it.


~
Final Outcome


~

Knitting News!!!!!!!

I finished my "Monkey" socks for Daryn.

~


The pattern is really pretty.

I really enjoyed knitting them.

I had to take a picture of this painting. While the kids were at art class, I got a chance to visit a local art gallery. Very interesting stuff. The smaller version of this piece was $3000.00. I doubt I could afford one this size!
