Sacramento: Family Conference

-
Image
     This year, our family went to the Family Conference in Sacramento.  This year's theme was "Trust in the LORD".  My younger sister went to a program called "PRE-EMBASSY", and I went to COMMIT in the morning and Student Sessions in the afternoon.  The rest of our family attended the General Session. Tuesday      On the first day of the conference, we registered at around 5:00pm and listened to a few talks that night. Wednesday      On the first day of COMMIT, we learned a song called "Still, my soul be still", which we practiced every day and sang at the end of the Conference.  Also, we each received our COMMIT booklet.  Inside the booklet, there were devotionals for each day at the conference and pages for notes. This is the COMMIT booklet.      We listened to two talks the first day.  The first one was about prayer and spending time with the Lord.  The second one was about...

Discovery Journal Unit Summaries!

Time passes so fast! It's so hard to believe that it's already the end of July! We've all had a great summer studying the book of Psalms through the Bible Bee summer study. In just one week, it'll be August 3rd, our Local Bee's Proclaim! Day. And then, one week after that, it'll be... the Online Nationals Qualifying Test!!! One way I love to review my Discovery Journal is by making summaries of each unit. Unit 1: Unit 2: (I tried my best to scan this one, but I just couldn't get one without cut-off edges. So, I've decided to attach both below... xD) Unit 3: Unit 4: Unit 5: Unit 6: Unit 7: Unit 8:

Looking back, so many things happened this Sukkot in Israel! It was amazing!!! Day 1 On the first day and almost every day throughout the 8 days of Sukkot, we had a lot of fun playing in the Independence Park with kids from Israel and from all over the world. In the evening of the first day of Sukkot, we also attended a worship service in a sukkah at Roeh Israel (Netivyah) . It was amazing meeting people from all over the world, from Germany, England, America, Korea, and Romania! Day 2 On Tuesday, the second day of Sukkot, we visited  the Israel Museum  and had fun watching the kite festival. Day 3 On Wednesday, day 3 of Sukkot, we played at  the Independence park  again and joined some friends in their sukkah at French Hill for a fellowship BBQ. Our friends' sukkah Arm wrestling at Independence Park Day 4 Thursday, the 4th day, was the Jerusalem March! The Jerusalem March was one of the best parts of this Sukkot. ...

Tuesday, June 16th 2020 We are in Arizona! We were so blessed to be able to visit the Grand Canyon! "O Lord, how manifold are Your works! In wisdom You have made them all. The earth is full of Your possessions—" -Psalm 104:26 My family at the Grand Canyon! Theodore, Anabel, and I (we took off masks just for the photo) The Raven/hawk at the beginning of the 5-minute trail to see the Grand Canyon. Rock formations. The Grand Canyon!!! photo by T.C. by T.C. On the trail: by T.C. by T.C. Trees in the desert: Between rocks: by T.C. Squirrel (all squirrel photos by T.C.) Tree growing on rocks: And finally... Freckles the bunny! Surely, these wonders of nature points to God! Something as majestic as the Grand Canyon could not have come about by chance, which proves that God is real. He is the Creator, from whom and through whom all things exist. May His name be praised and glorified!

Pacific Science Center (Seattle)

My favorite part about Science Centers are the interactive displays.  The Pacific Science Center had lots of interactive, hands-on displays! We all had a great time at the Science Center. The Well-body Academy of Health and Wellness is an exhibit for kids that teaches you how to take care of your body and stay in good health. There are four areas in the Well-body exhibit: Food and Nutrition, Sleep, Exercise, and Hygiene. At the Food and Nutrition  area, we learned to eat healthy foods and the correct amount of Calories. In the Sleep  Exhibit, I learned that we need to sleep enough. Exercise is very important for health. Hygiene Let's go upstairs to the WELLBODY LOFT! Exercise well, Eat well, Sleep well, Wash well, and LIVE well! The Age Your Face  Display showed you the bad effects of smoking, UV exposure, and obesity on aging. Below is Theodore at the  Age Your Face  Display: On the left is how Theodore would normally look a...

At the Beach in Tel Aviv

We spent a few days of our time in Israel in Tel Aviv.  Tel Aviv is near the Ancient City of Joppa. I'm sure you all know where that is! Joppa is a port. That is where Jonah fled from to Ninevah! We rode the bus from Jerusalem to Tel Aviv. This is Freckles on the bus: Tel Aviv is by the Mediterranean Sea. It is very warm and humid. The view at the port is beautiful! We even got to see a boat! We also got to see an adorable cat. On our last night in Tel Aviv, Theodore made a tower out of playing cards! He also cooked delicious beef (a big treat because meat in Israel is expensive!) for us for dinner! After that, we went to the beach. At night, Tel Aviv is a shining city. The moon was also very beautiful that night. We also got to see lots of crabs! We also saw a bicycle at the beach! Hinny got to ride on it! Freckles took a picture by the beach: We had a great time in Tel Aviv! Read more about our trip to I...

On the Road On July 18th, we drove from Seattle to Canada. The drive was about 5 hours. On the road there, Theodore entertained us with stories. Theodore tells stories on the car In Canada We stayed in an Airbnb in Surrey, Canada. Surrey is a city near Vancouver. There were lots of trees around the house. It was like living in the woods. The front "yard" This is Anabel in the front yard: Anabel next to the trees This is our car next to the house. The house looks a lot like a cabin.  The Trampoline There was a trampoline in the backyard. It was our favorite part of the house. Theodore on the trampoline We found a giant bug in the house and let it go on the trampoline. Theodore, Anabel, and Catherine did lots of front-tucks and back-tucks on the trampoline. Anabel doing a front-tuck on the trampoline Theodore on the trampoline Grace (me) on the trampoline Theodore and Anabel on the trampoline Daddy a...

Multnomah Falls

     Since Multnomah Falls is really close to Bonneville Dam, we went there after we visited Bonneville Dam. Multnomah Falls, at a distance, after we parked our car. We went to the Visitor Center and did the Junior Ranger Program.  I also talked with a volunteer worker who was at the desk.  He was an old man, and he had been volunteering since 1989.      "You should really go on the bridge," he said, "It only takes 5 minutes to walk up there."      He continued, "If it takes 5 minutes to get up there, how long do you suppose it will take to get down?"      Without thinking, I said, "Well, it takes 5 minute to get to the bridge, but if you jump down, I think it will only take a few seconds."      I continued, after a short pause, "But, of course, we won't jump.  We'll probably take the same trail back down.  I suppose that will be about 5 minutes too." The Bridge, and the waterf...
