The three older girls are now officially American Heritage Girls. AHG is a Christian scouting organization for girls. They are LOVING their Troop Meetings, which take place twice a month. And, this weekend they have their first "social event" -- a Father/Daughter Dance!
Here is the Tenderheart Unit (ages 6-9, Erika and Dorothy Jo's unit) learning the flag ceremony:
The girls attended WEATHERFEST in downtown Seattle a few weeks ago to work on some of the requirements for their Meteorology Badge.
A visit to WEATHERFEST would just NOT be complete without the obligatory photo with the RAINDROP:
And, here they are after interviewing Rebecca Stevenson, chief meteorologist for KIRO TV ~
Aren't they so cute in full-uniform?
We also went on a trip to our local post office last week. The girls are working on their Stamp Collecting Badge and they wanted to see the inside of a post office.
The manager who took them around put them to work! Here they are sorting some of the catalogues:
We saw our mail carrier and the girls saw "our slot" where all of our mail gets sorted. Amazing how it all gets sorted and delivered!
You have a beautiful blog. I enjoyed learning about you all from your photographs. I'm a new follower from Catholic Mothers Online. Please stop by and return the favor.

Not reading blogs in a few months, I missed this. Awesome field trip! Great to see those little philatelists learning about the postal service. I'm sending some supplies later this week afer my friend at the stamp library puts them together.

Great blog! I am the troop leader for my tenderhearts so I came across your blog looking for AHG ideas. Happy surprise to see you homeschool too and are Catholic. We also homeschool and use Mater Amabilis. Trying to add more Catholic presence to the homeschool fun! Feel free to check out my blog too! www.growingagardenofgirls.blogspot.com
THANKS!
