August 25-30

Well everyone has already experienced our amazing Renaissance Festival fun on the 25th. You can find that day HERE. But after so much fun in the hot hot sun it was back to normal on the Monday.

Zander finally finished his grade 2 mathbook so soon we will bring out the 3!

We even made time for a Wild Kratts.

Gila Monster

On Tuesday we continued on with our Lion learning. I love using storybooks to supplement our finish products and these scratch paper pictures are terrific!

Amazingly enough Trinity and Echo had a “do everything together” day!!!

Middle of the week was Emanuel’s turn to shine with a completion…

And the whole gang worked on getting in the day’s harvest from the straw bale garden!

Thursday was back to work…

Kenya

Look Esther!! They drew you!

and back to the pool! Any time we can get some fun in the yard is always a bonus!

The kids really excelled in their schoolwork. So we drove over to McDonald’s and treated them all to ice cream. 59 cents a piece is always an amazing deal, especially when you need to buy 7!!!

We ended our week with Zachary over for the morning. He, Gabriella and their parents were going camping with Nana and Baba for most of the Labour Day long weekend. So he came over Thursday night to leave Friday morning. Though his asthma was acting up in the extreme humidity so they had to stay inside to play.

After the campers left we ran outside to check our beans… which apparently grew best if we ignored them completely!

Play on the playset…

And just generally mug for the camera.

And that is our week in a nutshell!!!
