Age of Discovery

I love this age...my age, Gman's age, Kiki's age...and yeah, even TBo's age. 

It's such an age of discovery.  Here are some things we discovered this week:

The dirt pile in the backyard...






A petrified goldfish under the car seat...



Political rallies can be educating entertaining...








(yeesh...tough crowd...)



Science fairs can be entertaining too!






Gman entered his first Science Fair this weekend!  At first he was very skeptical and not at all interested in another assignment.  Then I gladly showed him how FUN science can be; after that it was all I could do to hold the reins!

We tried to do one of Science Bob's experiments, but discovered we had done something wrong and considering our time constraints, we decided a simple research project would be...well, more simple.

Gman had recently had some lessons on science in the Bible.  There are SO many verses that pertain to "modern" science (in relation to the age of the Bible).  It's absolutely fascinating.  I suggested this science project to Gman and he took off with it!   He did all the research and writing.  I was very impressed.  Here is his finished product:





There were ten topics. Each one with Biblical support. We both discovered many new things about science and the Bible. Here are Gman's conclusions:





HE GOT 3RD PLACE!!



We are so proud of the work Gman did on his display!  We've discovered homeschooling is such an enriching experience.  It is truly a "reap what you sow" process. 
What in the world will we DISCOVER tomorrow?
