Presents

So today is my mom's birthday. I have four children, but only three old enough to work on anything. So I thought this year for her birthday I would help the kids work on something for her. So D and I went out looking for something to make her. At Walmart we found a set of three wood boxes that would fit inside of each other. I was going to allow them to paint them but I could not find the paint. So I allowed them to color on them instead and I think they turned out fairly well considering.

Ok I'm back!

Things have calmed down around here and I even now have a camera to be able to show you all what I'm working on. So let the posting resume.

Sorry everyone

Things have been super crazy and not well. I am not sure when I will postagain. I will as I can though.

Ball Crafty Challenge

So I went to Hankcocks and found panels of Disney fabric for 2$. I had been wanting just a light throw for the kids so this was perfect. I have made tie fleece blankets for them but before but I wanted just one layer. So I was going to try a weave looking edge I had seen on pintrest, just to find I am no good at it. So my 1st one has some fridge cut on it and the others I just trimmed up the white on the edges.

Friday's Learning Challenge

I went to Walmart and was able to get 24 crayon box for 0.25$, a math workbook (1st grade level), a manuscript composition journal, and a preschool workbook tp add to my book of tricks.

Thursday's Learning Challenge

Today DS is working on a kindergarten book from Dollar Tree about shapes. You have to trace the word of the shape, write the word of the shape, draw the shape, and look at pictures of objects and choose if they are in that shape. I love these books and so do the kids.

Thursday's Food Challenge

So tonight I'm going to make a version of Zucchini Rice Casserole. TR does not like onions or peppers and I am pushing it hoping he will eat the zucchini so hopefully it will pay off.
