Day 102/175

 

 

Today we went to see a play.  We went to a local Opera House to see the Tattercoats.

It was so well done, and very cute. I love that my kids got right into it, and were very pleased with it too. We haven’t seen many plays, so I was a bit worried as to how well they would enjoy it.

 

They got lots of ideas for the play we are going to do for our 4-H group as well. You could just see their minds a turning! Smile 

 

The girls also had Girl Scouts today where they learned about Nutrition.

 

Monkey Man worked on his Derby car while we were gone this afternoon. It was a fabulous day!
