A great day!
Feb 18th, 2008 by Alicia
We had a fun day today! We started the day with a tour of a newspaper. We learned lots and saw the presses in action, plus lots of nifty parts of what makes the whole business come together. Afterwards we stopped for Taco Bell (a treat for those of us who live in Nowhere!), visited our friends’ Grandma at her nursing home for her birthday, and then toured some new developments and talked about architecture and lonely dogs! ;) We came home from there and learned a little about various presidents, played at magic spells, talked math problems, discussed how babies’ neurons fire, did Brainpop and just generally played and yapped.
We got to see some other HS friends at the tour and met 2 new families for the tour as well. While we were checking in, the receptionist asked me about homeschooling for her daughter and granddaughter, and I left her our number. The daughter called and asked lots of questions about how the whole thing works, and she and her little girl are going to come by tomorrow to see HSing in action. So tomorrow we’re the tour!
Then we’re off at lunch tomorrow to have lunch with another HS friend and a friend of hers who is bringing her kids as well. There should be children for miles and much playing and talking all around. Fun stuff!
It’s bedtime and mayhem here so I should stop blogging and start directing some toothbrushing and song-singing! Night all!
