Photos of Comet and the beach below were taken just one day apart. The top two are on a clear, calm, warm day and the next two are cold and foggy, at least to start, it did in fact warm up that day.
We've gotten a little out of sync with our Zoology book so a giraffe blood pressure experiment was conducted early in the week and then we went on to reptiles. Colin takes a turn demonstrating while the other kids, and dogs look on.
Later on Colin is pressed into service to help repair the lawn mower.
The cats are staying indoors more with the cooler weather, Flower looks very comfy!
Walks in the woods continue safely now that the dogs have their orange coats. Spot the puppy! In some ways it's still easy to loose sight of the dogs where they are all black and their coats do blend in with the foliage.
On Thursday we went ice skating with the tween and teen group. Trevor and Hayley opted out, I got right in there with the kids though and took some pictures. I didn't fall down even once. I guess skating is one of those things you don't forget, or it comes right back to you.
Friday, on 11/11/11, what a cool date, we had a boy scout skills day. The boys were able to work on things that needed signing off in their books. I think Colin and Tristan are now almost ready to become first class scouts.
On the weekend we got to visit Kiwi, Comet's mother. There is a noticeable difference in how they react to each other now. It's not Oh my Mother, how great to see her, it's more like "Playdate, let's go"!
Comet enjoyed visiting kiwi and also very much enjoys rides in the car. He seems to think Tristan is there as a piece of furniture or something though! Comet looks comfortable, not sure about Tristan!!
Since bunny in the snow photo was written about last week but didn't post for some reason I added a photo to this week. The bunnies did enjoy taking walks in the snow. Thankfully the snow is gone now except for a patch here and there.
