Our Week in Review: Including Leonardo da Vinci, & the Zoo

We've been so busy the last two weeks (gardening, preserving food, farm animals, homeschool, reviews, ect.) that I am only now getting this post up.

You're either sitting around twittling your thumbs...which I never do, because there is always something … [Read more...] about Our Week in Review: Including Butterflies & Sharks
