Weekend

Since I am home from church with Dan this morning, I thought I'd post a quick update! Dan has been sick with a cold and although he's better today, he's still coughing.

We had a good weekend, although we had to split up a bit with Dan being sick. Friday we went to Livermore for Nathan's Biology class (where they dissected a crayfish - it was pretty cool). Friday night, Nathan went with his HS Sunday School class and spent the night at the Kemper's. Sounds like they had fun! The rest of us went to our home school group meeting where the boys learned about electricity and the girls made soap! Making soap was fun, and easier than I expected! Poor Dan had to sit in the van and watch a movie, inside the Matt's garage. He was a trooper!

Saturday, Kenny took Tim and Lizzy to Eskaton (where Kenny's Mom lives) and met up with our above mentioned home school group. Many of the kids played piano there, and a couple of them recited poems or Bible verses for the residents there. Then they passed out the pretty soaps that the girls had made the night before. Dan and I had to miss it, but Kenny said it was a really nice time. The residents there SO appreciate the kids coming in.

Meanwhile, Nathan was at our church with his HS class, painting! They painted their classroom and had fun doing that. It's exciting to know that we'll be getting new carpet in the SS classrooms at church!

Meanwhile for ME...I went to my Book Club meeting. Yes, it was one of those weekends where we had multiple activities going on. We find that as the kids get older, we get busier!! We look forward to Nathan having a driver's license in a few months! :)

And now today...the family went to church and Dan and I are going to listen to our church service online! We broadcast live on Sundays which is great if you have to stay home with a sick child!

Hope everyone has a fantastic day!
