Weekly Report: 5-31-13 + weekend

   Yeah, I know it's the second of June. We've been out of service range this weekend.


   School

    *snort* Couldn't tell we were homeschoolers this week...


   Books

    Plenty of those!

Justice: Reading back through some Riordan books for the fun of it. St. George and the Dragon. Uncle Tom's Cabin. Hobbit.
Joy: Artemis Fowl, Twice Freed, Princess Bride
Honor: Dragons, Dangerous Creatures
Grace: Fairyopolis, Mary Poppins, miscellaneous Magic Treehouse/Hannah Montana chapter books (she reads them aloud to Faith)
Faith: Biscuit Treasury
Honor: anything they leave laying out
Me: Five Love Languages of Children, Preparing Your Son for Every Man's Battle, Preparing Your Daughter for Every Woman's Battle
Read alouds: still working on the fairy stories volume and the Riley Child Rhymes volume, few Treasure Island chapters, finished The Boy in the Alamo (Honor gives it too hearty thumbs up), If You Traveled West in a Covered Wagon (Meh..), started Stout Hearted Seven

   Scouts

    AHG is going well. Joy has some big decisions to make as senior patrol leader, but it's good for her. Cub Scouts is backing down to once a month until August or September. Too many of our leaders aren't able to keep up the usual schedule this summer. Boy Scouts seems to be on the upswing of the leader changes. We had a small attendance for this weekend's camp-out, but it went well. The two newer boys worked on their Totin Chips and Fire'm Chit. They hiked, the fished, they played, they ate.

    Dance

    Slow schedule right now. One show this week. Next one is in two weeks.  The heavy schedule starts in early July.

"You guys should take this show to VEGAS!"

Even big ole Boy Scouts need a good stick
for roasting marshmallows.

help from Honor

The lake was too icy for swimming, but they couldn't
resist playing in it anyway.

Woods-woman Joy

That's the sign of a good camp-out. =)
