Where do the days go?

Catching up in History. We're just about to leave Ancient Egypt. Some of the books we've studied and used for our notebooks:
A friend came over for a few hours and had fun with Junior Monopoly.
The Girl helped make Pineapple Pecan Bread. Mmmmm....
Stennes welded a plow to improve his garden.
Mean Ol' Mama bought a Strageto game for $1.00! Poppins was excited to show the boys a childhood favorite.
Isn't he handsome?
Stennes won 2nd place in an archery competition. Good job!
We went preaching Sunday about 1 hour away and had a flat tire. Great experience for the boys!
Stennes gives it just one more turn.
We finally made it! There was quite a crowd for the clothes we handed out, and they were encouraged by the Word and music.
This little guy found a stuffed dog.
Teresa gave a Poster Art class, and their art notebooks are filling up nicely.
The Girl and Branch worked diligently on Greek and Latin. They are making nice progress.
The gardens are coming along nicely. We'll be harvesting potatoes soon. Kale salads have been a treat lately, too, and the herbs are a tasty addition.
Look what Stennes harvested from his garden!
Stennes also made a small garden just for ChubChub in the "back forty".
Isn't this an interesting chicken that Stennes has?
Trying out the new plow...
Poppins gave Anders encouragement on planting watermelons.
