update-Wednesday

A beautiful day for the zoo..we got there a little after six school buses did! But it worked out good.. we were able to stay in front or behind the large groups. We were going to go to the park afterwards but again.. it was too crowded.. so we ran to the store and came home for lunch.

We had to get up extra early cause joel was opening the building this morning so Cat and Joseph had thier bookwork completed by 7 and 7:30!..Catherine liked getting it all done so early that she has asked me to wake her up at 6 every morning!

The kids had lunch and at the same time watched a little bit of "The Jetsons". After a few minutes of free time, in which Joseph and Taylor played chess, Nathan and Kamie watched, Catherine worked on her memory verses and Kaleb watched a bit more of the Jetson, we read our science and history. In History we are learning about Ceasar, and in science we learned about Mars and whether liquid water was there.

Catherine just finished reading "The Secret Garden" and is now watching the BBC Video I got at the library. It will be interesting to hear what she has to say, most of the time she is surprised that the videos are not at good as the books.
