This morning I had planned that we would cut classes and head out for some nature study. The weather, however, was a bit windier and cooler than I had anticipated. I convinced myself that we needed to stay in. We spent the next hour in the school room and, truth be told, I was so engrossed and frustrated with a computer project that I can hardly report what work the children accomplished during that time. I can say that I did not have any ultimate success with my project. After an hour my son observed that he didn't think anyone else would have tried so long to succeed on such a project (it is a family trait, believe me dear son, you will be blessed/cursed with this stubborn perseverance in time). I realized the whole thing was futile and we just had to get out.
We bundled up, did a couple of errands-including picking up some lunch-and finally arrived at our Botanical Garden destination. We all enjoyed a lovely hike along a different path than we usually follow.
In all fairness, I know that Firstborn did some math and Latin as well as some copywork this morning. Sunshine did complete a copy work project from yesterday and do a page or two of math.

Lunch-McDonald's, bananas and cookies
Dinner-Carbonara (from Rachel Ray, again) another big hit with the whole family!, served with salad
