A little make-up

What does a little bit of make-up do to the appearance of my kids?

Robby didn't want to get in on the Goth look, he went to bed and refused to even take a peek at us!

Cody

Does a broken arm slow down a 14 year old skateboarding-boy?

Nope!

He's loved this sport since he was quite small and enjoys trying out new tricks..... it's hard to keep him off the 'board!

More pre-school activities

We read It looked Like Spilt Milk and learned how clouds can look like different things.  So we got out some kid-friendly stamps and made what we think clouds could look like.  
Choosing our stamps.
Stamping...
Yup, I CAN do it!
Me too!
All done!
After that we headed outside to look at the clouds.
It is a pretty overcast day, we may have to go check out the clouds another day.

Pre-school

We've been checking out these backpacks from the library.  
They each have a story and at least one activity to learn about the subject.  Some of the suggested things are above 3 and 4 year olds , wanting them to write the answers, but all can be adapted.  On Thursday the 28th, the twins and I looked through the packs and went over all the fun things to learn.  In the Weather one there was a windsock.  After observing it and seeing how the wind was blowing, I figured we could make one.  Following are pictures of us making windsocks.
