Raingutter Regatta

For Awana's, Maximus had a sailboat race called the Raingutter Regatta. Each participant had to design their own boat. Maximus wanted a pirate boat, with flames!

Maximus is so proud of his boat and can't wait to go to the race!

At the starting line... ready-set-GO!

Yay! Go Maximus- 2nd Place Winner!!

So proud of my baby boy!!

A Fieldtrip...sort of!

We decided to take a break from the books and enjoy a different scene of nature, so we went to a little park in the next town. It was a beautiful day! I wish we could go here every week!

Which trail should we take??

The boys listening to nature sounds.

What in the world is this? Maximus said it looked like chocolate chip pancakes growing from the tree.

Look at these berries!

The creek had rushing rapids!

The water was soo cold!

River is in heaven

"Look at me, mama"

At the end of the trail, before heading home, we thought it'd be cool to pick a favorite fall leave and trace the veins!
