Updates

It has been a long while since I have posted

and I want to make sure I'm not missing any of 

our happenings.  Here is how my memory serves me...

(not well most of the time :) )

Dad and the kids created a radio from 

wiring, foil, and cardboard tubing.

Matthew's very favorite thing is to 

create these science projects.  He asks

weekly when he can make more.

So far they have made a robot, a telegraph,

a spinning wheel, and multiple volcanoes.

for read aloud we fished all three Pippi Longstocking

books.  Wesley proclaimed he LOVES everything about Pippi.

They were a hit all around.

Wesley's snail art

We took a field trip to my favorite local greenhouse/petting zoo.

We picked out our pumpkins for Halloween

and ran around the corn maze.

Wesley has been working hard with learning to 

read.  We have gone through the whole 

alphabet phonetically.  Now we are working on

consonant blends and word families.

This year everyone was vomiting on Halloween.

This picture was taken before 

Wesley decided to get the flu too.

  We celebrated Matthew's 9th Birthday

We went to Marine on the St. Croix

Went down to the river and dinner at the Brookside

Until next time...
