A Manners Contest and More: The Walnut Acre Daily Thursday August 1, 2013

WORDS TO LIVE BY

But godliness with contentment is great gain. ~1 Timothy 6:6

WORKING, LEARNING AND PLAYING TOGETHER

The morning started out rainy so we stayed in for awhile until the sun came out and dried things out a little. 


Yesterday CJ fell and scraped his knee so Doug bandaged it for him. That was still on Michael's mind this morning and he decided he needed to have a bandaged knee too. 


We finally got to go outside. They played Duck, Duck, Goose again. Lots and lots of Duck, Duck, Goose. I'm thinking some of these kids may be dreaming about Duck, Duck, Goose tonight, they played it so much. 


Austin and Christopher sharing some music.


Amanda decided the kids were going to have a contest today to see who could have the best manners. She decorated the table, divided the kids into teams and kept a record of points each time a child demonstrated good manners. The kids loved it and were all very well mannered. The team on the right (Michael, Mykalin, Cayson and Meteah) won.

Since all the kids were gone this evening, CJ to his parents house and Austin, Amanda and Michael to my parents house, Doug and I decided to go out for Chinese. Yummy!
