Field trip

On Wednesday, we took Nathan and Sarah (our piano teacher's kids) to the Patee House Museum and to Jesse James House. At the Patee House Museum, we did a Seek and Find where we went to different rooms and had to find what didn't belong in that room for that time frame. It was very interesting. There were lots of cool things and one of my favorites was the tank where we pretended to shoot each other (See pic). At Jesse James house, we got to look around the house and we saw the bullet hole in the wall ( there is a pic) were he was killed by one of his own gang members for a reward.

MS walk

Last weekend was the MS walk. It was beautiful weather for a walk. We had 6 people on our team my dad is in the picture but he wasn't on the team because he drove the golf cart ( he is on the board for the local chapter). Last year we walked four miles and this year they surprised us and gave us the option of walking 6 miles so we did. It was so much fun.

Burning

Last week,we did some burning because our CRP grasses have to be burned every year. It is alot of fun, but it gets REALLY hot if you get too close. My favorite part is probaly looking at it the next day and seeing what I did.

Cousins..............for four days!

Well, on Thursday my mom took us to my

grandma's and said that she had to take care of something in town and she would pick us up later. So when she came back to pick us up, we were walking out to the car and Jake and Austin jumped out from behind a wall........what a suprise! Anyway, they stayed that night and the night after that and then they went to grandma's until Monday when we picked them up to go to the Nature Center where we did a scavenger hunt outside on the nature trail they have. Then we went to Monkey Cove ( an indoor water park) and went down the GIANT slide about 20 times, and played in the pool.

8 Week Classes

Last week we started our 8 week homeschool classes. I am taking Intro to Algebra and Wind Energy plus some 12 week classes. My favorite class is Wind Energy. I like it because it is about conservation and the outdoors.

Homeschool classes

Yesterday we started are 12 week home school classes. My brother and I both had a class about science experiments and we have Chess. I really like both of them. We are also will be taking some 8 week classes and Mom will be teaching a 8 week Spanish class.
