Day in the life….

Well, not really a normal day, but what we did today.  We had Emily still here and the kids were starting to get on each other’s nerves after trying to create a circus together, so we started out by doing some science experiments.  We attempted to make homemade rock candy (this we actually did previously, but we did get to check out the creations today) and then we made color swirls with milk, food coloring and soap.  That project lasted all of 10 minutes, so I decided to give Fini a call and I invited us all over to see/feed the zebras and goats.  That turned out to be a great outing (especially since internet was out for several hours today and I couldn’t work until it came back this evening).

We are very lucky!
