We started off with our regular school work.
Then we headed off to a library (out of our zone) for a homeschooling scavenger hunt. The librarian showed the children how to use the library.

 |
| Cait relaxing! |
 |
| She and I read this book together |
Then came the scavenger hunt. She listed 10 or 11 questions and the children either had to remember the answers from what they discussed or search the library for the answers.
First they had to introduce themselves to three librarians and write down their names.

| Cait drew a picture of a librarian and gave her only one leg |

When they were all done, each child received a bookmark. Then we headed over to the rug to play with Rocky and Vinny for a few minutes.
We got home to two packages from one of their aunts. She got Cait a new bed set which she adores!

| First smile on the girls face all day! |
And she got Jayden a Louisville personalized baseball bat!
