Walking with the romper-stompers…..does anyone else remember having these as a kid?? We used to love playing with them!!
They had a lot of fun playing, but then had some quiet time drawing.
Today:
The first Friday of the month, our homeschool group has Park Day. During the summer months, our Park Days are held at Camel Lake, swimming. Well, today there was a 70% chance of rain and t-storms, so we decided to skip the lake and just have gym day at a local church.
(Turns out we didn’t get a drop of rain till about 9:30 tonight!!Go figure…the last few days the chance of rain was lower and we got showers and t-storms each day! LOL! Oh well!!)
The “older” kids played a game of Apples to Apples….
These guys spent the first little while just talking. Later they played 4 Square…..
….and air hockey.
Fish was on the menu for supper tonight! Dan usually grills it, but he had a bad headache this afternoon, so I did some research online to find a recipe for breaded fish. Since I am only learning to like fish, I have only cooked it like once in my life….Dan does a great job of it, so it is left to him. It actually turned out quite good breaded and cooked in the oven!!
The catfish was so soft it practically fell off the bones and the other fish was filleted, so it was easy to bread. We have a lot left over for another time!! And I didn’t even cook the flounder yet!!Tonight I finished mowing the yard and then did some string trimming too. I was trimming along the fence between our house and the shop and all of a sudden I got sprayed in the face. I yelled and turned to see who was spraying me, when I realized I had walked into the path of the sprinkler!!
I just hope the guys working at the shop didn’t see! Haha!! It was rather embarrassing yelling at a lifeless object!
My sweet children and hubby cleaned up the dishes for me while I was working outside.Tomorrow morning I hope to go to a few yard sales then I must get my cleaning done and make food for supper. We are having a few guests over!
