I forgot to bring the camera along on the exciting(!) field trips we took this past week. Bowling with the homeschool group on Friday, sugaring at St. John's University Arboretum's Maple Syrup Festival on Saturday. Those were fun, and exciting(!), events. But, no photos. So I had to take photos of our always interesting daily life...
And here's a visit we had from a Big Green Worm.
Big Green Worm entertained us with some keyboard playing.
Elijah and the cat were not impressed.
But then the cat tried to eat the big green worm from the inside...
Oh, the highlights of our field trips: Rose used the gutter guards very advantageously as part of her bowling strategy and scored an impressive 81 and then a 91 on her second game. Elijah, with no gutter guard use at all, went from strikes to gutter balls and back to strikes/spares with not much in between to score both games in the mid 50 point range.
The best part of the Maple Syrup Festival was the ice cream with hot maple syrup poured over it. Yum! And we got to sit by a campfire to eat it so it wasn't even TOO COLD.
Oh, and Rose loved the big black horses that pulled the wagon on which we rode from the car to the sugar shack. She and George sat up front with the driver both ways.
