Day 13 - Rv

This morning we went to CLAY, our homeschool group.  One of the moms was presenting science experiments.  The kids loved it.  Some were experiments we have done before so it was neat to see them understand and know what was going to happen.   Our church was also having a garage sale so we went to check that out.  I found some neat homeschool books for cheap, Colt found an erector building set, and Cam found a star wars costume!  All of the boy's costumes are packed so he felt extra special having a costume, in fact he only took it off because we made him!  The field behind our rv is full of lady bugs.  We have been hunting them and watching the life cycle.  We have found ladybug larva and pupa and of course adult lady bugs.  Great science lesson in our back yard!  The rest of the day was just a lazy day. 

Watching the cool experiments!





Can you see it? Lady bug larva...it is grey with red spot, sort of looks like an alligator!

Here is Lady Bug pupa.  That larva finds a spot and becomes this and soon will emerge looking like this......
Adult Lady Bug!
