The kiddos have been working hard on their schoolwork/classes, but of course, there has to be some fun hands-on activities in there like mummifying apples. You can't study the Ancients without doing some fun experiment regarding mummification! :-) We will let you know in the next few days how our "mummies" turned out. :-)
On Thursday, my birthday, my hubby made me a yummy breakfast and then we headed with some dear friends to the Sight and Sounds Theater in Lancaster, PA too see Joseph. (they were offering an extremely generous homeschool discount and my friend gave me my ticket as a birthday present!!!) What an amazing production. Wow! And, to top it off, one of my friends made me cupcakes and I got serenaded with "Happy Birthday" right there at a bench on the grounds of the theater. :-)
My parents made me a delicious birthday dinner, so we headed there upon returning from the show for some yummy eats and some Thursday night football.
On Friday, we again trekked up to Lancaster County (I just LOVE it there!) to the annual Cherry Crest Adventure Farm's homeschool days. If you have never been able to visit Cherry Crest, I strongly encourage you to take the time and do it. There are over 50 hands-on fun activities for kids as well as a 5-acre corn maze. The maze has all kinds of fun surprises inside including a zipline, sliding board and even a cafe, water stations and port-a-potties! It is a family-centered and wholesome place; one that I am pleased that my children ask to visit every year. We were glad that some good friends got to join us. It was so much fun!

What a fun way to celebrate your birthday, with family and friends and a fun show! Cherry Crest looks amazing! How fun for the family! Thanks for hosting the link up!
Sounds like a fun birthday celebration! We have yet to make it to a Sight & Sound production, but my hubby and I were talking about that this weekend, and wondering if we might be able to go for one of the special homeschool discount shows.
Looks like a fantastic week! I LOVE Joseph! And mummifying apples sounds interesting, lol! Would love to have you come link up with the #ParentTeacherMeetUp as well! :) http://branson365.blogspot.com/2015/09/merrill-homeschool-parentteachermeetup.html
