Keeping a budget






We have really been trying to stay within our monthly budget and the children are finding ways to help out. Trisha (sweet, sweet girl) decided that she would do service without pay. They look for the best price at the grocery store and have really been learning so much!! It's practical math for sure! They learned about price of gas and how much gas a van uses. We skipped the last Lifelearner gathering because it would use up so much gas, (it really helped that the weather report was rainy and cold!) which would allow us to go to the DaVinci Experience for Field Trip Friday. We were able to go in with a group and get a great rate of only $5 for three of us- the other two for free. It was really neat and the children had a wonderful time. Trisha read the Magic Tree House book 38, Monday with a Mad Genius on the way there and on the way home. (sorry I made these photos so small, just click on it and it will get bigger.)
