Just thought I would fill you all in our our past couple days. We have been kind of busy.
Friday, we went shopping to try to find Alexis a pheasant skirt. The new rave out in clothes. Couldn't locate anything that was in her size, anywhere, but Jameson ended up with a new basketball and a basketball shirt. Then Friday evening, we went to the Upland Hills Ecological Awareness Center to see the movie "The Lorax" by Dr. Suess. They have family night there once a month and show a movie and have popcorn, watermelon and drinks. We will probably do a short unit study on "The Lorax". I found some great websites: http://www.auburn.wednet.edu/homepages/ilalko/Seuss.htm and http://www.nashville-schools.davidson.k12.tn.us/CyberGuides/Lorax/teachertemplate.html that I believe will give me some great information.
We have been working on being more self-sufficient, growing our own food, canning and preserving, eating healthier and with organic products, recycling and being a little kinder to the Earth. This movie fit right in with how progress and greed can get in the way of what really matters. When I put together what we will do for this unit study, I will post it.
On Saturday, Jameson had his All-Star baseball game. Boy was it hot and humid out. But his team won. I believe the score was something like 17 to 0. After the game, we had a picnic, ate hotdogs, snow cones and mingled with many friends. After that, the kids went to a movie while Keith and I went out to dinner. it is always fun to have alone time with my husband and, of course, ran into many more friends. There is something to say about living in a small town.
Talk to you all soon. Cheryl, proud owner of Camp Creevey
