So its cold and cloudy and my kids (and I) are kind of over it. They didn't want to go outside so I offered up a craft day. This was greeted with hoops and hollers because I am not the 'most likely to craft' mom. Parker, Brayden and Lilly started listing all the random things they wanted to make. The list included (but was in no means limited to) a lasso, a snowman that was able to move, flowers and melting things (at which point I offered up crayons and tried to ignore terrible visions of boys lighting things on fire.
I have to say we managed to fulfill all requirements and took pictures since Dad isn't home... okay the snowman is on paper and doesn't walk and the first lasso proved a little too good and was taken away, but all and all it was a success.
Lets melt some stuff... well crayons... and safely
and a flower
Some just couldn't wait for the melted crayons to dry,
a dipped spoon made her day, or more like 30 minutes.
I am strongly considering signing this one up for the rodeo
this is lasso number 2, a more manageable option (that wasn't quite as noose like)
This is Lilly's stay still and smile face...
