Homeschool Curling Session

So, while here in Maple Ridge still we did a homeschool curling session.  It was ok, but my kids are far beyond what they were teaching, except Little Mr. D who has not curled before.  Mr. E was a helper because he has been to the curling provincials in Prince George.

Here are also a few pictures from our rink in 100 Mile to which we will be returning shortly.

Here are a few pictures.

Salmon Run Fieldtrip

We went on a great field trip to see the salmon spawning. It was a fun day, lots of salmon, a great walk and fun games.  Here are a few pics.

Hat Creek Ranch Fieldtrip.

 We went on a field trip to Hat Creek Ranch.  I had set up this field trip before we knew we were moving.  I passed it on to a friend because I thought we wouldn't be around to go.  We ended up being able to attend.  We were so excited!  So here are a few pictures to show the trip. :)
