Summer break is still in session :)
It seems like every year that I plan to have school during the summer ends up like this one. We have had several unexpected things come up, so we haven't hit the books yet. It has been a cool summer, though, so since the purpose for doing school during the summer was to make it so they could enjoy the cooler weather in September, it has worked out fine not to have school.
Some of the girls have enjoyed some field trips. Laura, Abigail & Charlotte went to Conner Prairie in Indiana for a day of living in the past. They really enjoyed their time there and came home with lots of stories about things they had learned there. Laura & Abigail spent a couple of nights with some of our friends and got a good history lessons on World War 2. A few days later, they spent the night at another home and heard about the Vietnam and Korean wars. It is great that they could have these live, personal history lessons.
