BiblioPlan Week 13
Francis of Assisi Bernard of Clairvaux, Anselm
Last week's opening picture was SNOW, then a few days later we rushed up to heat! It only lasted for two days, but we enjoyed every minute of it! We did all we could outside. Can you see the pet taxi on the right of Dd? Dd decided pitiful kitty Agnes needed to share in the fresh air!
Dd's sax has been returned!

Dd's sax has been returned!
Dd has enjoyed having two sax's this past week! We will return the rented one soon. It was interesting for her to compare the two, now that she has a bit of experience.
Hello Friends!
Things are still a bit crazy here--we had Dd's birthday, and we have had some celebrating last week, this week, and the next week! I'm not sure spreading it out was a good idea---live and learn!
Dh took a day off work and we all went to Kirk Park, on Lake Michigan together as a family to celebrate Dd's birthday! It was a great day! We went all day!
Since we didn't get as much done as I wanted, and Dh had to work on Saturday, so we fit in a bit of our left-overs then.
A quick summary of our lessons:
Bible:
Veritas Press: Gospels
Teaching by the Sea
Matt 12: 15-21 God's Chosen Servant
Mark 3: 7-12 A Great Crowd Follows Jesus
The Withered Hand:

We read each story with our Bible and Believer's Bible Commentary---I just love our BBC.

Music:
Lots of Music happening! Sax, piano, and trying out the violin some. On Dd's birthday, she asked to go to a music store and try some string instruments---she got to try the cello, base, and a half-base, I think!? The sales person spent about 40 minutes with us, and shared a lot of helpful information. Dd had a great time trying them all out--she would love to get a cello and take lessons for that. But, they sure are expensive!
Dd spent about 4 hours on the sax, about 2 hours on the piano, and about 1 hour on the violin. It was a good music week.
