Baby A's Chart

Baby A, made her very own chart today and filled it all in. There was no help from anyone at all.


Seasonal Night Sky

Another Mystery Science day. We learned about the seasonal constellations, and why we see different ones at different times of the year. Then we made a star box to let us know which ones to look for at different times.





Sundial

Mystery Science has been a life saver this year for quick, easy, well informed science lessons. I haven't had to worry about adding any other explanation to the lessons because they are so thorough, and all the experiment materials I have had on hand. Its been wonderful. Plus a big bonus is the kids love them. Today they made their own Sundials to tell what time it is with the sun. They even adjust to your altitude and the month of the year.

Volcano Experiments

This fun experiment was from Mystery Science. It taught "how differences in lava types explain differences in the shape and eruption patterns among volcanoes."






All things Halloween 2015

Ward Halloween party
This whole week felt like one BIG party. Everyday had a new reason to dress up and go out. I really like dressing up and letting the kids have fun, when the weather is nice that is.

They won Best Couple Costume

Flag Football

MR. W played flag football this year. He loved every minute of it. The highlight of the season for him was his 2 long bomb touchdown passed he caught. He will make a great RECEIVER one day just like his dad. I love to see the light in my kids eyes when they get to participate in something they love.












Thanksgiving in the Park 2K15

We went to our cousins house to spend Thanksgiving as a family. The weather was so unbelievably nice we were in t-shirts. We enjoyed a wonderful picnic followed by games in the park.
