field trip!

With American History being part of our CC curriculum this year, we have some great field trips lined up. Thursday's field trip was one I've really been looking forward to because I've never toured ... the Governor's Mansion. We were excited to have that time with just the big boys and extra excited that Mama Anne was able to join us!

The Library where Governor Rick Scott signs bills at times. One fascinating detail: two jars from Christopher Columbus' voyage are displayed in one of the bookcases ...

The guest room where Presidents George H.W. Bush & Bill Clinton have slept ...

The surprise highlight was meeting First Lady Ann Scott. She was very sweet answering many questions & posing for a group picture ...

 

 The field trip was a success :)

 

september snapshots.

October is here! I love this month ... Fall fashion should become a reality in our area before too long; some of our favorite holidays are on the horizon; and delighting in the evidence of Fall outside is close by. For now though, here's what September looked like around here...

No matter how the season goes, GO Gators :)

 

 

Scenes around CC ...



 

This is the day we were halfway to CC, and Eli said, "I don't have any shoes on!" ...

 

 

Enjoying the outdoors!

 

Random shots :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



 

Cousin time! [wish we had all the cousins]

 

Watching the city workers cut down a dead tree early one morning ...

Soccer Saturdays have begun. GO Huds!

These are from a field trip to the Tallahassee Museum to learn about a child's life in the 1800s. [the kids are studying American History this year] They worked as children would have back then, learned about churning butter & experienced how school was during that time... including wearing suspenders & playing until the school bell rang :)

 

  

These two girls have so much in common ... both are 2 years old, have similar

names [ellis & hollis :)] and they have three big brothers all about the same age.

It will be so fun watching this friendship grow & grow!
