Farm Safety Day 2016

Trey, Atticus, and Braden

We learned about being safe with electricity.

They got to wear some of the gloves that linemen use when fixing and working with electricity.

We also learned about boating safety.
Trey got to be a demonstrator :)
He liked the attention.

This was our gun safety instructor.
He was a little bit of a grouch.  Party pooper!!

Here we learned about germs.  It was fittingly named, "Germ City".

Trey and the other kids learning about tractor and lawnmower safety.

Can you see Bubba in the background?  The main lesson here was "Don't be a Bubba"!  Pay attention when you're around machinery.

Here was our fire safety instructor.  I didn't get to watch it because they piled the whole group in that little trailer for the lecture and then filled it with "smoke" and let them climb out of the back window.

I guess you would call this class animal safety. The kiddos got to handle a baby alligator and touch some snakes.  It wasn't really my favorite, but they all seemed to like it.

I caught Trey touching the alligator.

Well, folks I made it through my last Farm Safety Day!  I have been to it will all three of my kids over a period of five years and not a lot has changed!  Trey was however, the only one that has been homeschooled.  We signed up and went all on our own and they put us in a group with the private school kids, so Trey got to be with some of his buddies from school.  There are three main private schools in the area, and two of them seem to have nice kids.  There is one in the area (that will remain nameless) whose kids were so snobbish....and it is supposed to be a Christian School! If you're kids are as mean to others as I saw them be, you got some work to do.  I am extremely glad that Trey won't have to deal with that everyday. 
Maybe I was just tired, maybe I'm getting old, but one thing I know for sure, I am glad that I do not have to go back to one of these!!!

It was fun to spend a day with Trey!

Much Love,
Beth

Back To School Photo Shoot: The Girls

Three Doses of Happiness

Laundry piled up, dishes in the sink, phone buzzing with many emails, toys all over the house.......sounds like an absolute perfect time to go outside and relax with my kiddos! Today has been a VERY warm day.  It probably would be more enjoyable if we didn't know that it would more than likely storm tonight!  Carlie didn't go to school today because she was up a lot last night with stomach issues.  She never vomited, but she was very nauseated and has had stomach cramps.  She hasn't felt bad all day, just off and one.  We might be going to the doctor tomorrow p.m. because Sunday night I noticed that she has a little bulge above her belly button, I wasn't concerned about it (really) until her stomach started hurting and she said that it hurt to tough.  Maybe it's nothing, but people keep mentioning hernia to me.  Please pray that she feels better soon.  Also tomorrow is the big day....academic advising.  I remember the very first time I was advised (somewhere a
