Food and Talents!




For a homeschooling unit, we studied Nutrition, Rest, exercise, and Fun. So, to complete our unit we invited another family over to share a meal and participate in a little talent show!

Courtney, and Nicole helped Mom put all the food we needed into two big pots, Carrots, Celery, tomatoes, Barley, Hamburger, Noodles etc. They made the best Hamburger Barley Soup! Then we made two loaves of Irish Soda Bread.

The Lowry Family arrived, and the 15 of us spread ourselves over 3 tables. Unfortunately I never counted spoons before they came, and we ended up using baby spoons. I guess we need to get a few more spoons before we do that again.!


After Dinner, we showed off our talents. We had several piano players, some jokes, stories, singing, tumbles, and even some crocheting. The girls even put on a short play about the "Two Billy Goats Gruff, and One Troll".

After the Lowry's left, the house felt so empty. It was a wonderful evening and a great way to learn and share our talents with one another.
