Homeschool Field Trip..

We enjoyed a fun field trip this morning with our group to a private museum called A Place to Remember.

It was an amazing place, very professional. The family had put quite a bit of time and money into it. The kids even remarked that it reminded them of an exhibit at EPCOT (Disney World in Florida). There was a house set up with furniture (from the turn of the century) along with a gas station, 95 year old model-t in pristine condition, replica of a school room, lots of farm implements, a shanty (or shack which early settlers in Iowa would have lived in ), a gun collection, loom & quilt collection and many more things.

Our homeschool group generally takes 3 field trips in the Fall and 3 in the Spring, along with a presentation fair at the end of the year. We usually take our Iowa Basic Skills tests in March, but this year we will be taking them in November. We do this over 2 Friday mornings with all the moms as proctors. We have been blessed both in Florida & in Iowa to be a part of wonderful, Godly groups.
