Summer week 4


The 4th week of summer, Lydia went to art camp. I signed her up for art camp because she loves to paint, and I needed to make it "equal" since the boys did basketball camp.  I don't have any pictures of her artwork, but it was all pictures of her guinea pig, Milo.  On the last day, she brought home a clay sculpture of Milo!  This was no surprise, as last year at school, every creative writing assignment was about guinea pigs-until her teacher told her to choose a different subject.  And she has read every book in the library about guinea pigs!
On Friday, we took a field trip to one of the kids' favorite playgrounds, nicknamed "Chutes and Ladders" because of all it's long slides and climbing structures.  

On Saturday, we took the kids to a fishing clinic.  They practiced casting a line and had minnow races. Brett's first minnow was "sleeping", but his second minnow knew just what to do!
