This is my 5yr old in her latest costume she created. I especially like the fireman hat complete with the crown. She was interviewing me. I thought I was having flashbacks to my old MTV watching days. ;) She would have fit right in with that outfit.

First Pottery Creation

Nine Years
Here he is with his birthday present. He cannot wait to open it up as he is convinced it is the pottery wheel he has asked for for a few months now. It was. I will post his first creation once he has finished painting it.
We had a mad scientist party complete with science experiments, a jello filled with creatures, and this "brain cake". My oldest would not eat it. The boys loved it. They also loved the experiments and made outrageously loud mad scientist laughs, each trying to out due the others. I saw some real theatrical talent at this party. I can no longer hear due to the volume level of their talent though! :)

This is what happens when a 5yr old finds a piece of black charcoal.
This is my sweet pea playing in one of the little houses at our local park. This park is such an awesome park. It has the play area with swings and slides, ect., it also has a river with a walking trail by it, a pond that is loaded with frogs and turtles and other wildlife, and fields for flying kites, playing soccer, baseball, a basketball court, and last but not least little wooden log play houses made from real wood nestled amongst pine tree's to create a Little House on the Prairie effect. These little houses are where my little ones spend the bulk of their time playing all sorts of make believe games. In the summer we literally can come in the morning and make a day of it. It is just the most awesome park! My oldest loves to swing and when she tires of that she grabs her books and settles down on one of the benches scattered all along the trail and throughout the park and reads the day away. It is truly a magical place.
Lazy afternoon walks exploring
