On Monday we carved pumpkins and baked the pumpkin seeds. One of the nice things about homeschooling is that you can count "carving pumpkins" as art! The kids had fun, although Mark was a little unsure about sticking his hand inside the pumpkin. The next day we baked the seeds...one batch was made with butter and salt and another batch was made with butter and garlic salt. Yum!
Last week we discussed how Jesus is the "Bread of Life." And this week we talked about how He is a Rock. To go along with our theme of Bread of Life, we made bread for a friend of ours and delivered it with some homemade jam (I made the bread, not the jam. ) Our week continued with lots of school on Tues. and Wed. And on Wed. afternoon, Aunt Jen and her children came down. The older kids had a nature walk with Mr. Wentzel, our neighbor. He took them for a walk up the lane and had a discussion on different types of trees. Discovery Club followed the walk. And then we had a birthday supper and celebration for Mia. We had all 9 of her grandkids here. What a blessing! We love you, Mia.
