Summer Fun for Everyone

abe and amos (2)
I hope you are having some fun-filled family adventures this summer, whether in your backyard or at the beach. We just got back from a a week in the mountains. There were plenty of bugs and dirt and wildflowers to be picked. The boys (all five ages 2-10) each enjoyed different things. Making snares for prairie dogs, fishing with a salamander lure, making homemade ice cream, playing cards, and of course looking at the stars. What a blessing that each child has been given his/her own unique set of interests and that we’ve been given the opportunity to help them explore and cultivate those interests for God’s glory.
We are starting a bit of an experiment next week with our Robotics Jam Session. This will be an open-door two hour session for all children (primarily ages 8-14), starting Wednesday, July 16, 10:00 am – 12:00 noon. The Moscow Church of the Nazarene has been gracious enough to let use space in their East Wing, where Montrose Academy formerly met. If you like the idea of project-based learning, educational robotics, and an opportunity to learn along with other families please join us – the possibilities are boundless!
For folks not in the immediate area who are interested in educational robotics please click on the resources tab at the top of our homepage (http://www.homeschoolscienceinstitute.org) to learn more about these fun and engaging learning tools.
We’d love to see your favorite summer pix on our Facebook (facebook.com/HisInc) page if don’t mind sharing!

1 week out from high school graduation for Cy. So thankful for this man. The Lord graciously gave him to us to steward for 18 years. It was an amazing ride and a journey for all three of us. Our oldest child has shown us a great deal about God's kindness and mercy. Thanks buddy. You"re the best! So excited for you!
