First and foremost, I want to thank you all from the bottom of my heart for your wonderful support during the Homeschool Mom Blog Awards. I am humbled and am very grateful that your votes helped me to win in the Best Homemaking/Recipes category. All of the blogs nominated are amazing and I am privileged that mine was included among such company.
Now to all of the happenings in the Home to 4 Kiddos this past week....
On Saturday, two of the kiddos participated in another session of cooking with their 4H group. They made lasagna and fudge! I'm sure glad that the parents get to have a sample, too! lol. :-)
You can see photos of their delicious finished products here.
On Monday, the kiddos all worked together and made a 3D replica of Jamestown. We just love hands-on projects.
When they were deciding the colors for the model, we looked at the photos we took while we were in Jamestown as a reference. (you have to love awesome field trips!)
Didn't it come out great? :-)
The last week or so, I have been teaching myself to knit with the help of lots of youtube videos. My daughter has expressed an interest in doing knitting with 4H, so I thought it best to learn so I can help her when needed. My very first project was a hat for her pigie. :-)
The kiddos also worked on their Italian assignments that the teacher gives them via Quia.
These two photos are from a heated Italian Jeopardy game.
Here Kiddo #4 is basking in the fact that she won Italian words Hangman.
We also had a trip to our library, which we always enjoy.
Yes, I even take my camera to the library. :-)
Wednesday night, Kiddo #1 surprised us all with dinner. He made biscuit pizzas. They were really good. We actually liked them more than regular pizza.
We ended the evening with canning some cinnamon apples.
What we are looking forward to this coming week:
4H Cooking class on Saturday
Visit to Hershey, PA
Kiddo #4's 10th birthday!
Thanksgiving

Lisa,
Congratulations!!! What an awesome thing to win the hsba post award for homemaking blog! Yeah you. :)
That model looks amazing. I havent' heard of the Quia language option. I may have to check that out.
Looks like a great week with a lot of family involvement. Those are the best. :)

Congratulations, Lisa! Very well-deserved :-) The canned cinammon apples look wonderful. I'm afraid I just about managed to stock my freezer with baggies of applesauce with our pounds and pounds of windfalls. But we'll be glad of it over the winter!
Congratulations on your win! I love being a part of Try a New Recipe Tuesday! Looks like you had a great week :)

Congratulations on winning! Well deserved! Wow, looks like you all have been busy with school! Thanks for sharing.
Congratulations! How fun! I love the Jamestown model. Very pretty. And knitting a HAT is NOT a small project for a beginner. That is impressive! My first project was a washcloth. I made a good dozen of them before I was brave enough to branch out to anything new. Even then, it was just a scarf, which is a glorified washcloth stretched long and skinny. lol.
Congratulations on the award! That is so awesome!
