Hi There Fellow Visitors, Friends and Homeschoolers...
I have Learning at the Edge....
It's Finally been warm enough to actually swim frequently as well as enjoy the pool, backyard and sunshine the last week or so.

We spent some time doing a Camp Be Yon Key Craft.
We haven't kept up with our lessons as we should but, busy has been in our forecast alot this summer so our Camp Be Yon Key Crafts have been a nice pleasure or relaxation.
Our Shell Creatures turned out very cute, we had a blast until I burned my finger with the glue gun pretty good but, we did have fun making them.

We discovered this bug looking similar to a ladybug but, definitely was not.
Anyone have any idea?
We found it very lovely but, didn't touch it for we weren't sure what kind of bug it actually was.

I went grocery shopping one night and when I came home I discovered that Phoebe and her daddy had made this cute little dollhouse for her little babies out of pizza boxes.

We made guacamole the one night and took the pits as we have learned and put them in water to watch them grow into a lovely unfruitful avocado tree.
Simple Science Experiment for the kids right now they are having fun waiting for it to sprout and begin to grow.

We visited the further library to continue with the kids 1 summer reading program and the park near by has this water play ground
Being the weather was finally Sunny and Warm I allowed the kids to play--they had a blast.
Next time we will take a picnic lunch with us.
 
The Last exciting learning on the edge lately was Phoebe..
She loves music and she is trying very hard to copy what her daddy and brothers teach her on the guitar unfortunately her fingers are to small for daddy's guitar yet but, she tries.
She looks so cute trying.

Well, the week isn't quite over so I am sure I will have more Learning to hang out there...things have been a little out of sorts lately but, hopefully soon it will all come together.
Our 4 younger kiddos start school officially August 31st, due to my schedule, happenings etc. this year--We usually start earlier but, this year it's absolutely impossible.
Our oldest Aaron has 5 credits or his 12th grade year to finish this year and he will be beginning Sept. 8th again due to books purchased, arriving and schedules as well as issues we are having with him.
More On Homeschool Year Coming Soon!
