Here are a few pictures of our little fall break.
It is so fun to see the creative side of the kids come out when they aren't hindered by our usual schedule. Last week I decided to cut the week short and finish week 9 this week. We got three days in so I figured if we do 2 regular school days this week we can spend some time doing other things. Yesterday was a work day- extra chores and such. So I told them today is a reading and crafting day and they've been taking that VERY seriously. We've had all sorts of fun happening- drawing, painting, building forts, exploring the trail and pond behind the house, bead jewelry making, and some knitting for me. I'm so glad I gave myself "permission" to ditch the schedule for a few days and just enjoy being at home! Last week we also went to an orchard to pick apples and enjoy some cider and donuts. When the kids have a little freedom and the supplies they need there is no end to the fun! Ella made clothes for some of her Calico Critters out of paper and Charlotte discovered Shel Silverstein.
