Silly Princess

She and her cousin were playing "doctor" taking turns wearing crazy teeth and a green hat.

Best Friends

Oldest was so happy Saturday. He finally got to ride his bike around the neighborhood with his good friend, and his friend spent the night with us.
They spent most of the evening creating science experiments.

Riding Around

Oldest was finally able to try out his new bike yesterday. He rode to the stop sign and back several times. Unfortunately, none of his friends were home and he said he wasn't feeling well. It seems as though the boys caught the crud.
I love how Princess is running alongside Oldest.

Cookies and Salt Dough

We tried a new salt dough recipe with cornstarch and baking soda. It did not turn out well. However, the cookies turned out well.

Candy Canes

We put together party favors for two class parties. Princess has candy cane mice for her dance party, and Oldest has sour candy canes with glow in the dark snowflakes attached. We were going to make salt dough ornaments today, but we ran out of time.

The Elf Kissing Booth came from LivingLocurto.com.



Under the Weather

Sorry for the lack of activity on here lately. It seems I have the crud. We will post again soon.

Lego Advent Calendar

The boys really love their Lego advent calendars. Caboose has last year's (scored it at Dirt Cheap 90% off), and Oldest has this year's. I had no luck finding a girl advent calendar, so Princess has a chocolate a day advent calendar. Good thing she loves chocolate.

Princess and the Flu

This is a photo Princess took of herself at the doctor's office. She has the flu and croup. Mr Coppercoin has back issues, and is even in physical therapy. Yes, we are all falling apart.

Tired

Caboose was a tired little Superman after school today, and Nafers the elf decided to take a little bath in some marshmallows.

Glittering things...

Oh how Princess loves glitter. No matter what I try it makes such a mess.
