Thursdays - busy days...
Thursdays are definitely our busy days!! Today we headed into town as Abigail had her art class. this mornings class focused on Van Gogh. I was surprised at how much Abigail remembered about the artist and his work after the class. She is really enjoying the classes and loves her teacher, Chloe.
While she is at her class, I took Sam to McDonalds to the playplace, with another homeschooling Mom (hi J!!!) and her DH and youngest DD and my good friend Val (they are all good friends). It was a good morning and the time flew by!!
After art class we headed to Broadmoor Lake and played at the playground for a while before taking a walk and going geocaching. We found a geocache close to the fire station :) After that it was time for gymnastics class!
While Abigail was at her gymnastics class, Sam and I took another walk around the lake and went hunting for another geocache a little further afield - we found it!! :) Cache #2 for the day :) We were happy!! We played at the playground for a while again before heading back to watch Abigail in her class for a while!
The weather remains gorgeous! It has been so nice to be outside enjoying the lovely temperatures!!
After gym class we stopped off at Sobeys for a few things before heading home....to enjoy a few more zucchini muffins that we had baked yesterday!!! Yesterday we did more baking - including some oatmeal raisin cookies!!
Sam decorated a treasure box when we got home too - he has been finding treasures all over the place - feathers, lucky stones, silk flowers...all kinds of little things he wants to keep - and so I found him a box to decorate and keep his treasures in!
That was our day...our evening was fairly lazy...supper, baths....computer time and movies, relaxing - the children seem to be playing in their rooms or wherever.....someone is soaking in the bath still......someone is on the phone (as always)....Susannah went for a cycle ride to the store with a friend.....here I am blogging.....
