Sketch Tuesday

Our Sketch Tuesday assignment was to sketch something from outerspace.

A Few Pictures from this weekend..

What real love looks like...

So, no matter what I say, what I believe, and what I do, I'm bankrupt without love.

~

Love never gives up.

~

Love cares more for others than for self.

~

Love doesn't want what it doesn't have.

~

Love doesn't strut,

~

Doesn't have a swelled head,

~

Doesn't force itself on others,

~

Isn't always "me first,

~

Doesn't fly off the handle,

~

Doesn't keep score of the sins of others,

~

Doesn't revel when others grovel,

~

Takes pleasure in the flowering of truth,

~

Puts up with anything,

~

Trusts God always,

~

Always looks for the best,

~

Never looks back,

~

But keeps going to the end.

~

Love never dies.

Happy Valentine's Day!!!

He stole our hearts!!!

Is he cute or what?

Talking to Papa!

Ancient Egypt....YUM!

In history, we have been learning all about ancient Egypt. So we decided it would be fun to make a cookie dough map of all the places we have been visiting.

The boys really enjoyed this project!

We used blue frosting for the Nile River and the Red Sea.

The green frosting was the fertile "black land" created by the inundation.

Hersheys Kisses=The Great Pyramids & Sphynx

M &M's= different cities along the Nile

Chocolate Chips= The Valley of the Kings

Noah's finished product, which as soon as this photo was taken, decided to add to it to make the imaginary village of "Acatare"! LOL!



Here is Micah's masterpiece....as you can tell by the chocolate on his face, he ate as much as he placed on his map!

Blubber Experiment

We have been learning about polar animals for the past couple of weeks. I found an experiment about blubber in Janice VanCleave's Science around the Year Book.

We put shortening (blubber) in one hand and placed ice on top. Then we put ice in our other hand with no blubber.

Guess which hand was the first to get cold!

The polar bears, penguins, and whales are in good shape.

Isn't God smart???
