Welcome Back!

Well, I hope everyone had a fun and safe Spring Break.  We traveled to spend time with family, which was a much needed event.  East Texas is home to our families so when we go to see my parents, we stay on the farm that my grandfather built.  The boys had such a great time fishing.

The boys wait patiently.  I don't think they got anything the first day.

 

We went in to town to see the Veteran's Memorial our small town has created.  It is quite a site to see for such a small east Texas town.

 

 My grandmother cooks fries up the Blue Gill for us to eat.  Yum!!!

 

 There's always bluebonnets in their side yard in March.  They make great pictures.

So, what are we doing this week?  

Language Arts: We will be working through our Figurative Language Unit and working on Spelling List 20.    PLEASE REMEMBER THAT BOOK REPORTS ARE DUE ON FRIDAY!!!  We will go over the format on Monday.
