What We Did Last Thursday



Last Thursday at co-op we had 2 special guests, Patrick Henry and Molly Pitcher.
They shared about their lives, and then we had lunch. We didn't have Bible because our guests coming put us off schedule, but we did have Character and we learned about the character quality of Gratefulness. :-) After that was Science and we put our first plants in the ground! 
But first, we needed water, so we all worked together to get the job done. xD
Because we needed to put water in the holes before we put the plants in so that they wouldn't go into shock. And we needed to finish filling up the beds.
Since Chris couldn't lift the wheelbarrow the first time and ended up dumping it over(:-o), Mr. Joe had to give him weight lifting lessons... xD
Bethany worked harder than anyone else
(Isn't my little sis adorable??) 
Luke helped loosen the soil,
and then "Molly Pitcher" came out and gave water to all the hard workers.

Oh, and then we found George(Yeah, I have an obsession with naming things).
Haha, look at his(meaning the toad's) expression in this one!
Next, Luke and Conner brought the water filled cooler to the garden beds,
so we could fill the holes with water, and finally put our first little plant(whose name is Ben) in the ground.



Of course, after the first exciting moment of putting Ben in the ground, it wasn't so much fun and we were all probably glad to go have P.E. class, which was an exciting kickball game, the Squawking Seagulls vs. the Red Raptors. 
Bethany and Jordan guarded first together for the Red Raptors,


I kicked the ball(hahaha!!)

We all enjoyed using our new bases!
Well, my team(I was captain. xD), the Squawking Seagulls pulled off the win, with the final scores of 13-11(I think). It was such an awesome feeling to tag Chris at third and get that last out. xD Great game, everyone! :-)
And I am awarding the MVP award(or whatever) to Madison Strong. :-D GREAT job, Maddie!!!! :-D 
And so yeah, that's what we did last Thursday!
