We have been trying to make an apple pie for like 3 weeks now, but someone kept fogetting or didn't have the proper ingredients but today we finally did it! I must say it looks yummy but we'll have to wait until after dinner to check it out. I found an awesome peeler,corer, and slicer at a garage sale for less than a dollar! That spiffy tool made it pretty easy to put a pie together.
Also we started Nature Journals today. It is the feast day of St. Francis of Assisi so this makes today an auspicious day to set out to discover and learn about the wonderfulness of nature. We decided he will be the patron of our nature and science studies.
here is the book we used to get our creative juices going. It is great for beginners like us and has simple drawing exercises to get you started.
The examples are inspiring too.
*******A Great St. Francis Quote********
"What a man is in the sight of God, such he is and no more."
*******Mary Clare Trivia***********
We chose the spelling of Clare not only to differentiate from my cool cousin (the great photographer) but also in honor of St. Clare of Assisi, who co-founded the Poor Clare religious order with St. Francis.

Ooh, I might need to check out that book. It's funny to me how open-ened, writing assignments are totally anna's cup of tea, but they make Caleb completely freeze up. They are SO different.
