First day of public school...

 We've been doing a bit of homeschooling all summer and started most everything else up a week and a half ago. (science & history start next week) Keeping with our tradition, we went out for lunch...pizza and ice cream...while the "other kids" were at their first day of public school. This year, Bug's friend (and our neighbor) is homeschooling too, so she got to join us. They were VERY excited.

 

 We were nearly done with our ice cream when I realized that I hadn't taken any photos!


 Because it was rather hot outside, we were trying to stay in the shade as much as we could on the walk home. While walking past the new parking garage, we discovered poems in the concrete. Very cool! The girls read the first one and moved on to the next. There was a guy just finishing reading that one. While the girls were reading it he told me that he had written the one we'd be passing next. Very cool. In this pic, they're reading his poem. 

 Who knew that a walk through a somewhat industrial area would turn into a nature walk? The girls found a lot of feathers. They were happy, I was picturing the fight the death scene that resulted in so many feathers....

How fun! I don't get to eat ice cream while kids were in school.
