Saturday Hike

On Saturday we went to a new to us path in Lafayette, Public Road Trailhead. It was a nice little trail that followed a stream that actually still had water.

The boys building a bridge.

Hard to see here, but this crawdad had turquoise on him.

Spencer's Life Dream

Spencer loves to memorize things and is really good at it too. This year we enrolled him in a nearby church's Awana program where he gets this fancy vest for badges that he earns by memorizing scripture. I can't tell you how much this vest means to him, like it was his lifelong goal to get one. He's in heaven this year because in addition to Awana, he and Isaac are also participating in Boy Scouts, which means another vest and more badges.

Spencer won a DQ gift card tonight in their crazy hat contest. He really did wear a hat, he had taken it off by the time he got home though. :-)

Berry Patch Farms

This past Saturday we went to Barry Patch Farms in Brighton to check it out. The strawberry picking was slim, but there were raspberries galore, it was wonderful! We'll definitely be going back.

This is bacon bits, the rather plump resident pig.

Puppy Love

Spencer and his toad.

I found this on the point and shoot today, one of the boys' pics. It cracked me up.

Samuel turned 5!

I forgot to charge my camera battery, so I was stuck with my dying point and shoot for Samuel's birthday yesterday. He had a great day and is still having a great time playing with his loot today!

Do you wonder what we do all day?

I put together a slideshow of shots that I took throughout our homeschool day. You can pause each slide to make it easier to read my verbose captions. You can also double click on the photos to see them bigger.
