Family Fun Day

Alright, today was family fun day after church. We had a picnic lunch in the park and went bowling for a total of 18 games between the three of us. (We had a free games gift certificate thingy we got for last Christmas and it was set to expire at the end of the month, so we used them all up.) It was fun and tiring at the same time. We needed a day for just some fun, so we did it. It was great. Pictures will be coming on that soon. We had so much fun.

On the schooling front, out of nowhere, Anna is learning how to read. She is putting it together pretty much on her own. Its really weird. She is also finally understanding how to count. She has been able to say the numbers, but she did not have the one-to-one correspondence down. She is getting there on her own, with lots of practice. We have been to the pumpkin patch as well. Anna liked it better than I did. We drove an hour and it wasn't any better to me than the one here in town. Anyhow, at least we can say we have been there, done that.

Two good books of interest:

*Lighthouse by Robert Munsch
*The Rag Coat by Lauren Mills

These books were spectacular. I really enjoyed both of them. They had such GREAT story lines and the pictures were terrific. I highly recommend these to anyone.

That about covers it and we are on to a new week of fun and learning. Hope you all have a great week. Take care.
