Slime

April 6, 2017

Well, yesterday went a little different than planned! Because of the threat of really bad storms and possible tornadoes on Wednesday, they cancelled school! Crazy! It rained pretty hard until about 9am and then the sun was out and it was honestly a beautiful day. As of writing this post at around 4:00pm, there is no rain and plenty of sunshine. They say there is still possible severe weather ahead but I can’t say we needed a day off of school for it! That’s ok though, I got plenty of time in with my three best buddies. I made a quick trip to the store first thing in the morning and bought Elmer’s glue and Borax – the two ingredients needed to make SLIME!

It really was so fun and entertained them for a couple of hours. I would totally do it again! They thought it was HILARIOUS when they would make the slime “toot” by pressing the air out. Oh, these giggles are the best sound in the world.

Fun “rainy” day activity for sure!

Would love to hear from you! 2 Comments

This is another one of my dresses. My mom recently tried this great product that removes yellow age stains from fabric and all my old dresses are new again! Woohoo!

Have a great day!

Ponies and Pigs

March 30, 2017

I’m not really sure what to do with Baby’s hair these days. It’s really long – but it’s also pretty scraggly and fine. It needs to be shaped up but I don’t want to cut it short. She’s definitely sort of growing her own natural mullet! ugh. Her hair is long enough for a ponytail or for pigtails but she won’t ever let me put it up. In fact, if I put my hair into a ponytail, she’ll scream and cry for me to take it down. Nope, not kidding. Life with little miss bossy pants is fun! ha!

She did let me play around with a ponytail one night…but she didn’t leave it in long!

Maxwell and Spencer looked nice in their ponytails too! Β πŸ™‚

Susan’s the best, as if we didn’t already know! She got even more fun last weekend when she took the boys to the Harlem Globetrotters! They had a ball…and each got to get a ball too!
