We're Still Here

We're still here.  Not much going on... just waiting for spring.


I should have taken a picture when there were three sandwiches on the griddle.
This last sandwich looks lonely!


Connor had his first grilled cheese sandwich...
on homemade bread of course.
He said they were "absolutely delicious!"


We were visited by this small group of black birds for several days.
They must have been looking for food because they kept eating the dog food.
We have bird food out but for some reason these birds preferred the kibble.


We've been making homemade noodles... yummm.


Our dog alarms sounded to let us know we had some sand hill cranes in the field behind us.


And we're still hard at work with our homeschooling.


Look at that concentration!

Ice Skating

We love homeschooling!
You can do so many cool things... like ice skating!
Today our homeschool co-op group met
at an indoor ice skating facility.
It was actually warmer outside than inside...
which is weird for January in Indiana!


Here's Nolan & Connor just after they got on the ice.
This is only their second time ice skating.  




Our homeschool group wan't the only group of homeschoolers there...
and you would never have known it. 
All these "unsocialized" kids got along so well together.

New Year, New Things


New like Oreos.
For those who don't read labels, Oreos have soy lecithin in them.
We decided to let Connor try one.
He had no problems after eating one.
Since his initial "trial", he has helped us eat an entire package of them.
Now he thinks Oreos belong in the pantry permanently.
:)
