Thunder and lightning! In the middle of a snowstorm! Over the weekend we had ANOTHER snowstorm which briefly switched over the freezing rain around midnight that produced QUITE a number of rumbles and flashes. What weather we're having in Maine!

No school on Tuesday. A and I headed into the city - A had some additional work training and I spent the day at the hospital with my sister who is recovering from surgery. The kids spent the day with friends, reading, doing crafts, building snowman. And in the evening, C had basketball practice and J had Boy Scouts.
We were back to "every day" school on Wednesday and Thursday. The kids had 4H and built snow shelters. (Our 4H is doing Outdoor Education and Recreation this year.) C had a basketball game. FINALLY. It's been WEEKS since we haven't gotten snow on Wednesday! J studied Celtic Knots at Not Math Math Class and the kid's friends came over Thursday afternoon.

Those cinnamon rolls look scrumptious! Glad you had a good week, snowstorms notwithstanding. And yay for a basketball game -- finally!
ReplyDeleteGreat stuff! We are trying to do more field trips- it is good for the mental health of all around here.
ReplyDeleteGreat projects and yummy-looking cinnamon rolls! Okay, help me out here --- how are celtic knots related to math?
ReplyDeleteHi! Stopping by from Hip Homeschool Hop. Those homemade cinnamon rolls looks professional! and super yummy! Blessings!
ReplyDeleteOh boy! Those cinnamon rolls look delicious. It sounds like you had a great week! I love the food group lapbook. It is very colorful and has lots of detail. I am following from HHH as well. Thanks for stopping by my blog to say hi. I have a question for you. How do you like Handwriting Without Tears? I have been thinking of giving it a try.
ReplyDeleteThose cinnamon rolls WERE good! I made the dough in the bread machine then rolled out and topped with some softened butter, brown sugar and ground cinnamon. The glaze is a simple powdered sugar, water and vanilla one. Yum! (But not something to have EVERY morning! LOL)
ReplyDeletethose rolls look yumm-o!!
ReplyDeletelooks like ya'll had a busy week! what week isn't busy?! :)
Your week was so full and varied! I love all the work your kids are doing. We are going to be doing the Native Americans History Pockets soon, too. I love their Celtic knots.
