"C" continued...

The rest of week #1 with "C":

Madison continued her studies and canvas creation in art class, learning about Marc Chagall:


She decided that it would be a fun idea to sleep for one night in her closet, so we indulged her idea, and sure enough, soon after bedtime, found her here:


We went for dinner to the "Chalet" for chicken, since on Daddy's new diet, his choices are limited!


While there, Mads reminded me that crayons start with "C":


We went on a family outing to Colliery Dams Park (connects to Chase River). The trails are surrounded by cedar trees. Jacob found a creepy crawly, as Mads called it:


Can't see "Wormy", as Jacob named it? Look at this close-up:


Fabulous bridges at this park, here is Mads on one of them:


For church, Madison chose a cherry red dress:


and Jacob wore..... checkered?


We had a lovely morning (OK, a few hours) of sunshine, so I took the kids to a small creek down the road from our house:


Jacob and I baked carrot muffins:


we ate chocolate chip pancakes:


created caterpillar crafts:


visited an old church just out of town:


read tons of books as always, here are a few of J's library "C" books:


The kiddos did some "C" worksheets:


I arranged a homelearner tour to the local City Hall (we met the Mayor and councillors!):


This is our decor for the 2 weeks of "C" - CDs, of course:


We also danced crazy to "Crocodile Dock" songs and Madison did a research project about camels.

...to be continued!
