play day

On Fridays Campbell and I usually lay low and wrap up the things I didn't manage to get done during the week. It is the only day that we don't have a "plan" and so sometimes we are lucky enough to happen upon a play date. Yesterday morning we had Eli over to play while Amy took the girls to the doctor.

The boys had such a good time. The played like crazy and at one point they were on a hunt for wild animals.

Then we all got an invite to head over to Vivian and Bauer's house for some play time and lunch... Even a little popsicle treat (hard to imagine that they were eating popsicles barefoot outside yesterday and now I am cuddling with my heating pad, but it's true.)Thanks everybody for a super fun day!

snap, crackle, pop

As a special after school snack today we made rice crispy treats.

Sometimes i let my fear of a mess get in the way of a fun project, but today we pulled out all the stops. i even let the boys dig through our bucket of 5o animal cookie cutters.

Then we decorated our treats with m&m's and marshmallows.


We ended up with some beautiful creations. a dolphin, a penguin, a dinosaur, a chick, a lizard, a frog and my favorite a parrot.
