Outrigger Field Trip

The older kids went on a field trip to go on an outrigger boat.  They had a great time.  And, there were DOLPHINS in the bay.  The tour guide said you never see dolphins there, but they were able to follow them around in their outrigger.  So cool!

I stayed back with the girls and we played in the sand...

We took a hike along the shore to learn about the ecosystems after the boat ride.  It was a great day!

Zoology

We had a few zoology classes in honor of Day 5 and 6 of creation. 

Dissecting Owl Pellets:

 

Learning about different types of bird beaks:

We "raised" caterpillars and let them go as butterflies during one of our classes:

My kids have really enjoyed doing science with friends this year and we have learned a lot!

March Catch Up

My mom had us over for a few Corn beef and cabbage St. Paddy's Day meal.  There was green cupcakes for dessert!  The boys had green ties for church but somehow I didn't get any pics of them.

Felicity still chooses to wear Peppa clothes, play Peppa toys, and watch Peppa shows whenever possible!

Tanner has been playing piano now and again in Primary on Sundays.  I love that FINALLY he can put all these years of piano lessons to good use!

Someone left us a yummy treat one Sunday-we were thrilled!

Baby Girl got into my lavender shampoo.  Her hair had a slightly purple tint for a few days after!

Look who finally lost a tooth!  She was so excited!  Just a few months shy of her eighth birthday.

Ladd took Charity and Hunter skiing with the Cripps.  This winter was great for skiing!

And the beach!  We made it to choir a little early to spend some time at the beach before practice!
