And now it came to pass that as Alma was journeying from the land of Gideon southward, away to the land of Manti, behold, to his astonishment, he met with the sons of Mosiah journeying towards the land of Zarahemla. Alma 17:1 Who’s that again? Well, do you remember Mosiah 28? Now it came to pass that after the sons of Mosiah had done all these things, they took a small number with them and returned to their father, the king, and desired of him that he would grant unto them that they might, with these whom they had selected, […]

Looking for a new table
We needed a new table, so we went on a drive looking for one! Photos taken along Lake-Cook Road and U.S. Route 14 from Algonquin to Barrington. It kinda looks like the water tower is on the trees! Algonquin, Illinois I love the contrast between the building and the sky! Algonquin, Illinois The first place we went to didn’t have a table we liked, so we kept driving! Lake Barrington, Illinois Barrington, Illinois Then we went to a second store, and they had one! Barrington, Illinois We drove home, then Dad drove back to […]
Continue readingQuack!
One day, we were eating breakfast, and we looked out the window and saw not one, but two ducks! Throughout their visit, we realized that they were molting, and therefore couldn’t fly. Since Woods Creek, the nearest body of water, is about a quarter-mile away, we were surprised they walked all the way over here! In any case, we went outside to (from a distance) observe them and take some pictures. Here are my favorites! When we got out, they were resting. We played outside until they woke up. They crossed the street (safely, good) and headed towards the creek. […]

Boone Creek Conservation Area
Dad and I went to the Boone Creek Conservation Area. First he taught me about shudder speed and how if I slow it down and take a picture of something moving really fast, the picture is not blurry. Then we went on a walk! To me, the footprint looks like it’s on the moon!

Once we got home, I recounted all my experiences in this video:

The Earth’s Crust Game
Mom and I read through a book about the Earth. We learned how the Earth’s crust moves, what volcanoes and earthquakes are, and what all of that means for us. We made an “Earth’s Crust” board game.
Landing on a volcanic eruption costs you two tokens, and the squares before and after it are labeled “volcanic ash” and cost you one token. A “sleeping volcano” earns you a token. Landing on an earthquake also costs you a token.
We made questions from sentences from the book. When we land on a blank space on the board, we have to answer a question. Right answers get us more tokens.
Whoever has the most tokens when we’re done playing the game wins!
Whale Drawing
He’s a confused whale. He doesn’t know which way to go.

Once upon a time, there was nothing. Then, there were lots of animals. Then Paul decided it would be a farm. A farmer and more animals went to the farm. Then they went to the shop to buy some vehicles. But there were lots of cars and vehicles! The cow…
