Dan the Animal Man

We went to a special presentation at the church next door by Dan the Animal Man. He brought some great animals and shared evidence of a Creator. It was a great service and the kids loved it!

Picturing America

This summer as an "elective" we are going to do the study Picturing America.

I entered to get the curriculum for free and it is amazing! So much more than I expected.

This is what the paintings look like:


There are several heavily laminated prints (front and back) in the kit along with a teacher guide. I've been wanting to study art for a while and this will combine it with American History. Each print is an American treasure. We are going to have fun!

And They're Off...

The boys packed their bags and went off for a week with Opa and Nana.





Whatever will I do for a whole week???
