Playing with Playdoh while we all got ready.
Eating Lunch on the Golf cart
Listening to Dora on the Ipod
Feeding the Ducks at Broadway at the Beach
Haven't eaten here since living In Charleston! Lunch for Mommy and Daddy!
We rode the Golf cart down to the playground to play for a little bit. Bryson loves the slides.
Emery loves the Sand Digger.
walked on the boardwalk and looked for Fish and Alligators.
Cooper was a good puppy too!
Then we walked down to the beach. Cooper loved the Beach! 
Emery Found Seashells.
Bryson found some too! 
We then decided to ride out to the Veggie stand for some tomatoes. Emery got a big Apple! 
All that fun was a little too much for this one. She fell asleep on the way back!
Riding the Golf Cart down to the Beach
Bryson and Emery love the Sand!
Bryson playing with his dump truck
And Bryson Also loved eating the sand!
Emery Thought it was fun for the waves to catch her Toes. Bryson thought it was fun to run when the waves got near him!
Tired little boy!
Running through the Tidal pool one last time for the day. We Decided to head to the indoor pool to wash the sand off. Bryson was a little Fish in the water! WE put Floaties on him and he jumped right in the water. Then he would get out and jump in again! Emery Already swims on her own with floaties and was all over the pool as well.
When we got back to the camper We filled the baby pool with water and gave the kids a bath outside. Inside is just a shower and they haven't quite gained trust in that! Then we fixed dinner and ate outside. they love to eat their dinner on the Golf Cart.
After dinner we take a Golf cart ride around the Campground and visit with neighbors. Mimi Sent money so we stopped by the Store and got........
BUG JUICE!!!!!!
That evening we went to visit with some family where Emery and Bryson were able to play with there cousins Danica, Jaxson, and Joshua.
we are now settling in to the festivities of Christmas. unfortunately Church was canceled Yesterday and we missed our Christmas service but we will celebrate it throughout the week along with the church service sunday after christmas. Why was church canceled? It Actually snowed here!! We get a pretty good snow once a year but this one was beautiful!! Last Week our children sang to the church and Emery did a fantastic job. I was worried that she wouldnt want to stand up there but she did great! she is the farthest little girl to the right in the burgandy dress.
HomePreSchool has been postponed until after the holidays.. One of the many many reasons why I love homeschooling. we have played many ABC games the past couple of months and learned in many other ways but our actual curriculum will be brought back out the first of january for all the Little Hands to heaven Followers!We then learned more about noahs ark and did a paper plate craft I got off of here: http://christian-parenting.suite101.com/article.cfm/make_a_noahs_ark_paper_plate_craft
She loved making this and putting the animals in!
We also did a rainbow craft. We tore up Construction paper and glued it to a rainbow. We Also painted the letter B, and made our B road (like we did for A). And of course we did worksheets!
And just becuase I think she is so cute here is a video of her counting to 10!
I chose this particular workbook because it was a really good price and it gave me all I needed in one book instead of buying many different workbooks. I am actually really pleased with it! I tear out all the Sheets we will be doing for the week and keep them together and when she is ready for one I give her one. I don't follow a certain schedule of what to do on what day. instead I make a list at the beginning of the week of all the activities I would like for EJ to Accomplish during that week. Then as we go along i see what she might be interested in at the time. I then will check them off as I go. This seems to work well because she has times where she wants to just color instead of listening to a story or vise versa. Sometimes this might take us a whole week to complete then some might take us a few days. I also add on this list books that I will be checking out from the library. I take advantage of the online catalog to see what they have so that I know what I am going for. I add snacks that start with this certain letter and theme words as well.
So As you can see I don't JUST use LHTH. I use LHTH as a base for our day and what to follow with what bible story, finger play and ETC. but I add in so much more.
Our Week 1:
Emery loved the Finger play. We learned about Adam and Eve and how God made the universe. Our finger play was A-A-A Adam! Can you believe? God made the Animals; and you and me! She loved it. There was more to it but with her being younger I kept it short so she would have an easier time memorizing it. So now when we say what sound does the letter A make? she says " A-A-A Adam!" I am going to try and get it on Video tomorrow and post for everyone to see.
We Drew on White paper with a white crayon, then painted over it with watered down black tempera Paint to show how God made everything out of nothing. She really enjoyed this project.
Another Art Activity we did was a Cheerio A. Emery Glued Cheerios to the Letter A.
We also made an "A" Road. I used masking Tape and put an A on the floor where Emery took toy cars and road them down the road. You could also improvise and have your child walk their stuffed animals on the A.
We did many more Activities including Hide and Seek A where Emery had to find all the A's on a page, Count on Me Caterpillar where she drew "1" Caterpillar in Each home (working on the number 1), The tree of life where we looked through a magazine and found a picture of 1 tree to paste to the number one page. This will soon make a numbers book from 1-1o. Our color was red so we colored with a red crayon all over a white piece of paper then walked around the house finding things that were red. We also played a game where we pretended a belt was a serpent and we have to run and jump over it so it wouldn't get us. Emery loved this and thought it was a lot of fun.
We read our Devotion out of Big Thoughts for Little People. Each week's Devotion is by the Letter. This wee was Letter A of course. A is for Asking. It was about praying to God and asking him for things when we needed them.
We used a CD that is used throughout LHTH called The Singing Bible. It is a Focus on the Family CD and has over 50 songs about the bible. Emery loves this CD and puts in herself and listens to it throughout the Day.
