Day in the Life

stackers again..

new lego sets (Dan took this picture!)

Old lego sets with new imaginings...

and the girls installed a bowling lane in their room...

Day in the life

Make your own lunch...into pirate ships!

Bre loves to wash dishes, do laundry, etc. It's unfortunate that she doesn't know how really.
Still into the legos. The girls are building Christmas floats with the pull-back motors now.
Josh doesn't want music lessons, but he is trying to figure out how to play with two hands.
And on a good day, Nathan sleeps so I can float between kids and help as needed.

Busy week...time to catch up...

It really has been a busy week, so much going on that I haven't even had time to post...so to sum up:

Playing in the park

Trying out the KITT car that Uncle Chris gave us

Riding bikes around the neighborhood

Playing legos

Playing legos a LOT

Driving ten hours last Sunday to drop Josh off at camp

picking up girls to spend the night

Teaching Nathan how to drive

(okay, not really, this is a break on our drive)

Dropping Josh off at camp

Playing some more :-)

Homemade Carnival!

After the medieval fair...the kids weren't done, so the girls built their own carnival.

Here, the guys are sword fighting with some leftover decking.

facepainting

parking lot ;-)

ring toss

target shooting (no hammock poles were injured in this game!)

(it's a tennis ball!)

hair decorating...color and braids!

wheelbarrow rides!

They made signs for every station, the games earned you tickets, 

which you could spend elsewhere.

Favorite place to spend tickets...at the snack stand!

One ticket gets you a soda, bag of skittles, whatever. lol

best thing? Games are free to play!
