Here's a photo montage of what we've been up to in late November!
 |
| Adam knitted a hat (with a little help from me). |
 |
| We're till having fun learning about the 50 States at our American Adventure co-op. |
 |
| Maryland "crabs" |
 |
We led a few meetings of Adam' Bear Scout den.
We taught the boys some basic cooking skills. |
Art.... We learned about and imitated some famous artists.
Adam chose Georgia O'Keeffe.
Ray chose Charles Willson Peale.
Music.... We took part in a five week program at a local college. Every Saturday morning the boys attended a music theory class and individual piano lessons taught by future music teachers. Ray is especially interested in pursuing more piano lessons in the new year.
 |
| We did a brief unit study about Ancient Africa. |
Our Learning Tree co-op wrapped up its Fall session. Ray sang with the choir in the concluding showcase.
 |
Handsome boys growing up too fast!
Preparing to sing at the Showcase. |
 |
| Ray's Ohio class also displayed their lapbooks and relief maps. |
We participated in our local Holiday Lights parade. The boys and Jon marched with the swim team. It was a wet, yucky evening..... just like most of the swim meets last summer!
Jon's firm held their annual holiday party at a super fun bowling/arcade restaurant. As usual, we were spoiled with lots of great presents.
 |
| Adam's big prize that he won in the arcade! |
 |
| MaMaw joined in on the fun! |
 |
| Bowling! |
Hockey! We had the privilege of attending a Blue Jackets / Red Wings game. It was a fun night, but not a good one for our local team. As usual, Jon couldn't decide who to cheer for.
 |
| Floor hockey at the arena. |
 |
We received an awesome surprise package from Aunt Nancy!
Adam LOVED excavating gems from the kit he received.
Thanks Aunt Nancy! |
 |
School.
We did, somehow, squeeze a lot of that in too. |
 |
Snow! Boo! Too soon! |
 |
| Big Hero 6 was a big hit with our crew! |
 |
| Our annual visit to the awesome train display at the downtown library. |
On the day before Thanksgiving we enjoyed a super fun "crafternoon" and "Friendsgiving" meal with some of our best buddies!
And, of course, Thanksgiving!
My mom hosted us for a delicious meal and a lovely family day.
Thanks Mom!
Happy belated Thanksgiving!

| One of my favorite turkeys... and a great school project. |
