Saturday Fun

Today, the boys and John were outside for nearly 3 hours trying to start a fire in the new fire pit John got for Christmas. They were using flint and steel and a bow jack. It was lots of fun for Jacob and Joshua to try and start a fire this way. Once they succeeded we cooked hotdogs over the fire. Abigail was too sick to try. She has a fever.





Also, a few days ago, Jacob came home with this 1st place ribbon. His science fair project had taken first place in his class. Way to go Jacob. His project was testing which plants would grow better, those with electricity running through the soil or those with out it. His conclusion was that fast growing plants grow better with the electricity and slow growing plants do not.
