Part one of June 25-29th, 2012:  

 What we did in our lessons this week!

We didn't get as much done on our lessons this week; but Dd did participate in a "5-Day Bible Club".   The first three days were held in an outside shelter; then the last 2 days were held inside due to the extreme heat.

Besides the M-F Bible Club, we had"Lunch Bunch"(where our town gives away a book-or three and a free lunch to children who show up wanting books to read), Arbuckle Park,  church,  our Library, 2-3 bike rides around the ponds in our neighborhood while I walked our dog, and a "Pampered Chef" evening party- big week!!

Monday-lessons/biking/gardening

Tuesday we went to Brownsburg’s Lunch Bunch; and invited a df to come back home and play and swim with us at our neighborhood pool.  We also biked.

Wednesday we had our lessons, then biked and Dd played the piano.

Thursday we drove out to Plainfield for the Lunch Bunch at Franklin Park.

Went to the Avon Blood Center and I donated blood; and then went home for a quick dinner.  Then Dd and I volunteered our evening working at our church's food pantry called "The Giving Tree".  We bagged up about a weeks worth of food for about 7 families.  We put away newly donated food and clothing.  We had a great time; but were tired by the end of the evening.

Friday we picked up RL and took her with us to the BPL to watch a free movie "Monsters, Inc" by Pixar.
