Grasshopper Gatherings
Brieanna was proud of the grasshopper she caught!

Beckham loves to play with the cars on the track,
and go down the slide.
Mason liked to climb the jungle gym.
Bekah loves to hang upside down.
Brigham liked the Jungle gym too.

They did a great job for only 6 wks of summer lessons.

At the Fair!
Most of Ellie's entries took Blue ribbons and her cookies get to go to the State Fair. She made the horse & hearts quilt, and the horse pillow behind her. She earned enough prize money to help with her school clothes and to buy something on her "saving for" list!
Weston got Blue ribbons on everything he put in. He was very proud of his covered wagon diorama.
Bekah got a Blue ribbon on the daisies she put in.
Ray got a Blue ribbon on his peas!
