Weekly Recap 3/1-3/5


This week has been a busier than usual week. We had several orthodontist and dentist appointments to add to our regular schedule. We got a lot done, but not everything that we'd intended.

Wednesday we spent a good part of the afternoon at our library. Normally, I reserve our books online and then we just go and pick them up. This trip was special because each dc had their own project to research. We spent time exploring the layout of the library and the organization of the books. Everyone successfully located their books and we came home with more than we'd returned.

This is what we returned.
This is the living room after the library exploded in it.

Friday brought more dentist appointments and a field trip to the airport to pick up DH! We were all ready for him to come home for awhile.

This was also a wonderful week on our three strike system. No one had a BAD day! Even me ;-)

We have an extra weekend field trip this week. Our local maple syrup farm is having their annual Maple Syrup Festival. The kids wouldn't miss the pancakes breakfast for anything. This year everyone is even old enough to take the syrup tour. I'm excited about learning more about how our favorite breakfast sweet is made. Check back later for pictures of that!

  3. Love seeing all the library books! I keep joking I should haul a wheelbarrow to the library! Looks like you could use one too! Great picture with dad... they look so happy to see him! I'm envious of the light outerwear your kids have on! We're finally getting into the 30's on a regular basis here! Thanks for sharing your week!
