March 10th-16th

This week
was just,

well...

 ...SUPER!!!

********************************************

It all began with a tween church retreat

called

Super Start .

We loaded up

one church van,

one church bus,

and two other vehicles

with 30+ 

4th and 5th graders

(and 14 adult sponsors)

on Friday afternoon.

This event was Jungle Girl's

1st "church trip"

other than camp,

and I do believe she had a 

BLAST!

This is my 3rd time

at Super Start as a sponsor,

and my first time going 

also as a parent,

and I really enjoyed 

"seeing"

the event...

 ...through my daughter's eyes.

*******************************************

This year's theme,

"What Am I Made For?"

centered around

Romans 11:36,

which says,

"For from Him and through Him are all things.

To Him be the glory forever.

Amen."

*********************************************

Among the Biblical ideas that were discussed

was a 

Mad Science Lab,

full of crazy science "tricks"...

 

 ...like this...

*********************************************

With all the fun at the conference,

you would think we wouldn't need to provide

any other stimulation for the kiddos,

but,

we DID,

by staying at

The Great Wolf Lodge.

AWESOMENESS.

 To make our stay at the lodge even

MORE entertaining,

an Anime Convention

was going on while we were there.

EVEN-MORE-AWESOMENESS.

I have  never been more entertained by

people watching in my life...

****************************************

After such a crazy-fun weekend,

AND losing an hour of sleep 

Saturday night,

we took Monday off from school.

I was so tired...

So, 

Homeschooling was a bit shorter this week,

but we still were able to:

*Do some St. Patty's Day writing

*Learn about Venus and her Volcanoes 

*Put together our Lenten Tree

AND Jungle Girl FINISHED her

Math U See Gamma Book-

Division,

Here we come!

Can you see why we had such a 

SUPER good week?
