Chase Running


Fair Day








Yesterday we went to a "fair" that was close to our house.  Chase climbed the climbing wall, rode the mechanical bull, ran several races and jumped in the bouncy castle.  And even after all that, he was still full of energy!

Weather Vane


Last week's science project was to make a weather vane.  We also made a chart so that we can track the wind direction and how strong/weak it is each day for one week.  This morning we went out in the back garden and it was quite windy.  It was hard to tell which way the wind was actually blowing, but we decided it was mostly blowing NE and it was strong!  Chase has really enjoyed studying the weather.  This week's project is to make a volcano that erupts.  Stay tuned for pics (hopefully)!

Karate




Today I took Chase to his karate class. Since we moved we switched to a karate class that is closer to our new apartment.   Today they did sparing, which Chase likes because he gets to use the batons to hit people.
