Halloween Week and the Science Fair

My Sister and I took the Girls to Davis Park to see the Scarecrow Parade.

At the end of the night, going through their stash.



Our Annual Homeschool Science Fair

The girls and I worked on Color Changing Carnations this year.
They learned all about the parts of a flower and
about how a flower uses nutrients.

Our display



These are some of the other projects that the children
put together.  They all did a great job.  It's so nice to see how smart 
and creative they all are.










One of the children made electric circuits out of candy.


Hannah building her own circuit.

One of the older kids showing us how to extract DNA out of 
a Strawberry.  He really did it too.  I told you these kids are
smart.  It was amazing and all the little ones couldn't take their eyes 
off of the experiment.


Avery showing off the Panda Bear Mask she made at one of
the exhibits.


I just want to take a moment to say how truly thankful I am for our Homeschool Group.  My children and all of the others truly benefit from being a part of the group.  For that matter, the Moms all benefit too.
