Entry’s from the Woog’s farm journal:

Caught fireflies from the first time (the other page is a sad tiger-??)

Here she is with a sunburn (she didn’t get one because I bathe her in sun screen) – guess she just wanted to see what she’d look like and then a spider on the right page

We stopped by Sonic for a cherry limeade and she drew the logo from my cup (she draws a lot of logos from things) and then “practicing her stars” on the right page

This weekend I want to try and take in a night of star watching. Hopefully we’ll get a clear night!

You can see my visual account of the weekend here.

This is the second entry in the Woog’s farm journal. She saw, what she claims to be. her first firefly, but she’s seen them before. It was about to storm so we couldn’t catch any but plan to this weekend. She likes it hilarious that their “bottoms light up.”

The next day she found a little snail and wanted to draw it along with a nice big tree.

We also hung her a swing from the tree in the front yard that you can see here.

Our Woogie Wednesdays will be turning into Woogie Weekends this summer and probably continue from now on. Since the Woog will start Kindergarten in the fall, Wednesdays will be full of school work during the day and church a night. We’ll see what we can fit in during Wednesdays though.

This summer we’ve decided to spend our weekends on my grandparent’s farm, enjoying the outdoors while doing some improvements to the farm house. I blogged about this more on my blog if you wanted to know more.

These weekends will consists of different “art” projects for the Woog and I. This past weekend was our first weekend and we both started an illustrated journal to document our summer. She didn’t get into it as much as I did but still drew some pictures about what she saw as we explored the farm.
