Backyard Camping

We went camping… if you can call it that. Though as I always say “it’s not camping unless you have Smore’s.” We had the Smore’s and the tent so I think that counts. We set the tent up and the kids played in it for hours. They were so excited to sleep in it that it took awhile to get to sleep. In the middle of the night Madeline said, “Mom, I’m done with this.” We went inside and slept the remainder of the night. Caleb and Daddy slept there all night long.

Building Cars – Lowes

The kids ask me all the time when we are going to Lowes to build something. They really enjoy these projects and if they are really into the outcome they will play with whatever they made for the remainder of the day and continue into the week.

Today we built cars, places stickers on them, painted them at home and had race after race.

Sand Castle Fun – Magic House

We could have spent all afternoon here. I am looking forward to going back with a good book. Sitting in their lounge chair and sinking my feet into the sand and letting the kids play, play, play. We had a lot of fun in the sand. In one of the pictures below you can see our want-to-be castle.

Last Day of Preschool

Caleb is so ready to be done. He has told his teacher over and over again with excited actions, gestures and expressions that he ready to go to Kindergarten. It has made me feel a little sorry for his preschool teacher having to hear his excitement for leaving. He has truly concluded his preschool years and is eager to move on.

Does it get better than this for kids going to bed???
