~ Back-Blogged: February ~

Once again, a lot of noteworthy events taking place...but not a lot of time to cyber-journal. 
 
Linking up to Like Mother, Like Daughter to share some pretty, funny, happy, & real times...
 
{pretty}
 
or soon to be...pretty.  Science can be {pretty} fun!
 
{happy}
Little Lamb's AHG group put on a 50's Swing Dance for the Families.
Dance instruction preceded the evening...which was, of course, spent dancing the night away! 
Everyone was {happy}
 
{funny}
Conductor dancing with his little sis.  Sweet.
The older girls ~Pioneers & Patriots~ worked on achieving their 'cake badges' with this amazing 4-tier cake creation.  Creative.
It was a {fun} evening that turned {funny} as the Hand-Maid Household won 'Best Dressed Family'
This is the look we were going for (?) sort of...
but this is was the final product...
Let's swing!
Black & White with Pink accents
I was able to find black skirts & faux leather jackets (on clearance for $11)
and pink tennis shoes, too!  Using white felt to create a quick and easy poodle skirt.
Tying all our ensembles together with some black & white polka dot ribbon.  Easy.
 
{real}
 
Little Lamb has been enjoying the AHG meetings and events.
We are a very patriotic family...
...so this was a very proud moment for Little Lamb.
She has been working on achieving the 'Our Flag' badge.
The Explorers did such a fantastic job leading us all in song;
while the flag was displayed in front of such a dramatic backdrop.
 
Go to Like Mother, Like Daughter to find more contentment...

~ Summer 2012 ~





Fishing.  Looking for "George".  That's what Little Lamb named this whopper of a fish that has evaded her, so far.  She's been very successful at catching several fish...but she's aiming for George. 




Popcorn thinks this is great.  She sits on the highest point possible and surveys all the activity.  See the tiny white blurry spot off in the distance...just above her left ear (our right)? 





This beautiful creature lost its mate not too long ago.  So sad.  :o(
Swans usually mate for life.  I think she may be lonely; she will swim up close to our area...She likes us; but she "hisses" at Popcorn.  Too funny.  Thank goodness swans are herbivorous - I think!? 

Rosen loves canoe rides.  L.O.V.E.S. them.  Conductor had just taken her out, tied up the canoe and was leaving the area when he turned around to find her back in the canoe...sitting & waiting.

Science lesson.  Entomology. 







Some zoology.

amazing faces!!!  Beautiful markings...
And I know there is a lot of literature~reading going on somewhere nearby...I just don't have documentation of that right now.  :o)  Butterfly is our little bookworm with an in satiable hunger for reading books!  Home-schooling fun is never-ending!

Having a very blessed summer...hope you are having one too!
