Lots of schoolwork but no Girl Scout field trip

Everyone was up and ready to get to work this morning which was good because we are started a couple new units.

I signed us up to do a State Share class with our home-school group.  Cairn picked Oregon and the littles picked Texas.  I printed out a state study packet that included all the normal things like state motto, flag, tree, flower, bird, etc plus some more interesting things like Indians, famous people.

We also started preparing for our upcoming road trip to Grand Junction, Arches National Park, Capitol Reef National Park and Colorado National Monument.

Cairn was supposed to go on a field trip to the Capitol building for a legislative tour with the Girl Scout troop.  But unfortunately, she lost it because of some temper tantrum behaviors she continues to have.  She did a great job handling it today.  Hopefully, we will start to see some decrease in tantrums after having such a big consequence.

We hit the library today too before the snowstorm hit so we should be good for a couple days at home.  We have lots of projects to work on so we are okay either way.
