First Quilt

The first sewing project the girls worked on was this lap quilt for a special lady in our church going through a tough time.  It was pretty special to work on something together and think and pray for her while we made it.

So much concentration!

Getting outside in St. Albert

Tante Anneleen came to visit for a week and a half.  So nice to spend time with her!

No visit would be complete without visiting some historical sites.  We visited the Heritage Museum here in St. Albert and walked the Founders Walk (http://museeheritage.ca/heritage-sites/founders-walk/)

Documenting our Journey

We're starting this blog to document our year of homeschooling and half year adventure in New Zealand.  It'll be a mix of both for family and friends to be able to follow along with us as well as a bit of a home school record for us as we will be doing a lot of paperless learning when we're away.
