Field Trip Wednesdays




For the next three Wednesdays I will be hanging out with Claire and Camdyn for class field trips. This past week we visited Vulcan Materials company. We learned about rocks, toured their rock "pit" and got to bring back some rocks of our own! Next week I am headed to Roper Mountain Science Center with Claire's class! Pictures to come soon!!

Pinewood Derby






The girls and Nate spent last week working on their Pinewood Derby cars for their Adventure Princesses group. They took a field trip to Pop Pop's house and cut out their cars, painted and decorated them, and then finished it off with wheels and axles. The races were last night. The field was competitive and both girls fared very well. Claire's car came in 8th place! Needless to say, Pop Pop and Nate took notes on how to make improvements for next year!! So much fun!!

Ezer

Don’t be concerned about the outward beauty of fancy hairstyles, expensive jewelry, or beautiful clothes. You should clothe yourselves instead with the beauty that comes from within, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is so precious to God.
1 Peter 3:3-4 NLT


My journey to invite, nurture, and partner continues....this study is really revealing to me new capacities to honor God through my womanhood. Lord, undo me.
