umm...someone isn't too good at the daily blogs...

I knew this would be a challenge to do something daily. I'm going to keep trying.

Books we've read together:

Daniel and Nephi by Chris Heimmerdinger-We liked looking at Daniel adn Nephi realistically-thinking about Jeremiah and Lehi as prophets-sorresponding the Bible and the book of Mormon. This was definitely a book for everyone. I was glad to have Kalani so involved. There wasn't a lot of chemistry here, but Thales got a passing mention, geography, war and peace and prophets.

Tales of the Arabian Nights-UGGH This was too violent for us. As much as I felt we should read some to get the idea, Raymond was the only one who appretiated it, and I didn't like that he appretiated it. The heroes were frequently in the grey area, and any wrong was frequently VERY harsly punished.

I read the Baghavad Gita-I need to blog about that myself.

Our history project for October was making bricks



Our science was static electricity. We made water bend, and had a good discussion (but mostly after the children went to play.

We had a great party. Raymond dressed as Galileo, Ben was a king (a wicked one he said), Natalie, Kalani, Lydia, Susan and REbecca were gypsies. We ate hummus and tabouli, and chicken in pitas.

At the hero party Kalani and Natalie were Ruth and Naomi, Raymond was Nephi, Lydia dressed how she pleased, and the littles were home sick with dad. We played night games and ate not a stick of sugar.

We have memorized Moses 7:18 and Moses 1:39. We are working on Abraham 3:22
