Typical Wednesday

This morning Alex and I went to pick up our weekly CSA share. We got a huge cantaloupe...seriously, bigger than Alex's head....a bunch of October peas, summer squash, tomatoes, a couple onions, zucchini, bell peppers and a bunch of peaches. Yum! We also got eggs, sugar cured bacon, ham steaks, beef stew meat, and 2 pkgs of chicken wings. Gotta love it.

The kids and I did school work and then set to relaxing a bit. I have some library books I want to read and the kids did various things...read, watched a dvd, did some educational games online. Normally we have bowling on Wednesday afternoons but for some reason the schedule said we were off this week. So we are hanging out doing our own things (kids not dressed) and a friend calls from the bowling center and asks if we are coming to bowling today. We have a quick conversation that basically consisted of me repeating "But we don't have bowling today...it says so on the schedule". LOL! The kids quickly dressed and we dashed out the door to bowling. Turns out that YES the schedule said we were off but it was a mistake and when people showed up they decided to bowl. Those that paid attention to the schedule (like I had been doing) can just make up the games so they can post their scores. Both kids had a couple of good games in them today. Afterwards Morgan went home with a friend and Alex and I came on home. We played some games and read. After Corey was done with work we started dinner....peanut butter & banana stuffed french toast. OMG....it is seriously as good as it sounds!! :-) I shelled our October peas while Corey made our dinner. After dinner Alex and I went outside to play frisbee. He's getting pretty good! We came in when we noticed the mosquitos...yuck. I plan on freezing the October peas and our peaches. We've made a couple peach cobblers but I think I want to save some peaches for later in the year.

Today we did history (we trade off with history & science every other day) so tomorrow is science. I plan on doing at least 1 experiment. I'll post about it.
