Ganson Family Scrapbook: March 2016

My class at CC (minus one little boy). Can you guess who the ONLY kid is who ever gets in trouble? :)

My kids LOVE when we have meetings at our house. Whoever said homeschooled kids don't get enough socialization have never been around our group. :)

We avoided a bunch of stomach bugs the first half of the winter, but we got hit hard toward the end. (And it was always on Tuesday evenings so we had to miss CC two or three Wednesdays!) Poor Abby HATES being sick. She's often the first one to get it, but a few days after our Both Hands project, Caleb threw up. Abby saw him and started crying saying "I don't want to throw up!" This is a picture of stomach bug #1 that only the kids got. The one after the Both Hands project we ALL got (over the course of the week) and it was very unpleasant to say the least.

Feeling better later that morning. (Unfortunately it didn't last long, poor thing.)

Since we had to miss CC, I did that day's science project with the kids at home and Abby got to join in...

Parts of the earth/atmosphere...

One Sunday afternoon at the end of the month, we went to Charlotte to see a movie with the kids and then walked around a park downtown. I love that spring starts in March here and is so beautiful!

Our kids are such rebels. :) (Read the sign...)

Making some sort of "adventure land" in the backyard. They definitely did this before I caught them.

I got this book with questions to ask your kids (one a day, although I'm pretty bad at remembering to do it.) I loved Abby's answer to this. She is just not a big fan of Karl. :)

Stomach bug #2... I'm just SO GLAD this didn't happen a few days earlier when we were doing the Both Hands project.

Since Grandma and Grandpa Kaufman couldn't come visit for Easter, they sent gift cards to the kids so they could pick out something in lieu of Easter baskets. We went to Walmart and Micah immediately bought a basketball hoop and some basketball cards. Abby picked out a stuffed pony and a dress for her doll. And Caleb.... didn't want to spend his money, so he kept the gift card. :) Like father, like son. (This is so typical of our kids!)
