Weeks 17 & 18 and some curriculum changes

For our spring semester we were ready to make some changes to our school year.  
We started our Monet unit study, finished our A beka language arts and started BJU English Video lessons, and also started Veritas Press Online Bible/History videos.  Everything else is basically the same.
Rose LOVES the Veritas Press videos each day.  It is currently her favorite part of school!  We use the self-paced videos, history cards, and song cd.

Rose's favorite book these weeks was David Livingstone.

Her favorite Monet painting is 'Irises in the Artist's Garden'.
Daddy and Rose went to an UNR Womens Basketball game.

Thanks to Pinterest, I was motivated to organize the pantry and some of the kitchen cabinets.  It ended up a family project.  Here is the pantry 'before and after'.


And here is some of the in between work....

Thank you Chad and Rose for putting in a slanted shelf for canned food and another one on top for storage.
