In this week's Torah Portion we finished up the book of B'midbar(Numbers). It covered when the Israelites completed the 40 yrs. of wandering in the wilderness and how the promise land is to be divided up among the tribes of Israel. The kids worked through their booklet and learned this weeks Hebrew letter
,tet,pronounced like a T. The craft activity was to make desert critters. They were supposed to dip their fingers in paint and make fingerprints on construction paper to decorate to look like desert animals. It quickly turned into finger painting desert animals and a much bigger mess than I had anticipated. Cole pretty much painted himself...LOL. Here are a few pics....

Today we went to the Lake McKamy and although it was pretty hot it was suprisingly comfortable on top of the mountain. Jason walked down one of the trails beside the beach and fished for a bit while the kids and I swam. It didn't take him to long before he rejoined us because he spotted a snake along the edge of the water. We stayed for a couple of hours and had a really nice time. Here are some pics I snapped:
