Coffee, Scutes, and Trees

• The girls got to play at a coffee house last night - a fun twist on children's recitals.  

• We had a great (but cold) nature walk with a ranger this morning. We got to see or discuss a few of our current science topics (carapace, scutes, and brumation - none of which I had ever heard of before studying them this week with mes petites.)
  

• We may be winning the battle of the trees!
