Mummified Apple Findings.....

**CAUTION**
This may be disturbing to some. :0 )

Well, one week ago today (8-29-2011) we mummified an apple!
1 1/3 c. of baking soda
2/3 c. of salt
The above was mixed together and poured on top of one peeled apple.
The other apple (our control apple) was left untouched.

Hypothesis:
Apple uncovered will rot and control apple will stay white.

(Above) Control Apple left out in container alone.

(Above) Apple covered in baking soda and salt.

Were we right?

Notice in the picture above --
Our mummified apple had shrunk inside the salt and baking soda.
It had also decayed quicker than the control apple.

Our hypothesis was INCORRECT!
YUCK! I would hate to see a mummy!

Have fun Learning!

It's School Time!

Mummifying an Apple!

What will happen?
Our control apple is sitting in a container unpeeled.
Our other apple was covered with 1 1/3 cup of baking soda and 2/3 cups of salt.

Hypothesis:
The boys think the covered apple will stay white and the control apple is going to rot.

We will tell you in a week!

Brennan's Baptism

We are so proud of Brennan!
At age 5 Brennan accepted Jesus as his Savior. He had always been afraid to walk down the church isle to make an appointment for Baptism. For 4 years we prayed for his strength in Christ. On Sunday, August 7th, Brennan looked at Brian and I and said I want to walk down and get baptized. I was thrilled, overjoyed and extremely proud of him.

God worked in his heart and He continues to work in Brennan. It is awesome to see God strengthen your children and you all at the same time.

Pastor Mike Kahn, Brian and I's Bible Fellowship teacher, baptized Brennan on Sunday, August 22, 2011. What a precious birthday present Brennan gave himself!!
