cooking out

Thanks to everyone who was able to make it to our classroom cookout!  We missed those of you who could not!  I think it's super important for our families to know each other and have an opportunity to hang out.  I pretty much failed in the picture department but i'm putting up what I do have.  I hope we can do it again!

yoga time

Here are a few shots from the younger yoga class.

making butter

This morning we made butter.  We filled a jar halfway with heavy cream.  Then we shook, and shook, and shook...

 We had to take a break to pour the buttermilk that had separated from the butter.

 Then we shook some more.

 Then we had butter!  While waiting for lunch, we took a nature walk around the neighborhood.

 We came in and enjoyed our homemade butter with yummy bread!
