Getting ready for Christmas now. Busy, busy, busy moving from one new thing to the next. Maybe too quickly. Ben is getting frustrated more these days, but he's doing well.

Ben tested for his yellow belt and broke his board on the first try! We think he's got it, but have to wait for the results next week.

Getting ready for Thanksgiving. We made our turkey out of recycled food boxes. I love it! I will try to keep it forever. We are studying how our body uses energy, needs vs wants, and all the regular stuff. Math, reading, and writing. I got behind on uploading these posts so I'm trying to catch up.
