Creativity and Other Bull

Homeschooling, it turns out, goes much more quickly than regular school which leaves the kids with extra time on their hands.  Annabel often uses her spare time to draw or do crafts.

Thane, on the other hand, spends time outdoors or builds thing in the garage.  This is a rodent trap that Thane found online and tried to replicate using mostly recycled materials.

The kids have also done some special projects for Easter, including egg decorating.

In lieu of our weekly Chopped competition, the kids decorated Easter cakes.  Annabel's was colorful and had lots of beautiful swirls and glitter (imagine that?!?)

Thane took a more pastoral approach with his barnyard design.  If you look closely, you might notice that the bull is contributing to the, um, fertilization of the field.

There's nothing like a 10 year old boy to keep it real!
