Recipe for FUN!

Well folks, it's Fall Break! HOORAY! I really didn't realize how crazy life gets when you are running 2 kids around town 5 days a week!!! This is a much needed break for all of us.

This morning has been fun! Caitlin and I tangoed (she put one of her pretend flowers between her teeth, told me where to look and then said, "Let's tango!"). Funny! I've helped Austin with games on nickjr.com - he loves playing those & I love that I can sneak in a little learning with him! It works best when I teach that way...he hasn't caught onto me yet! :) And he's been wearing his "helmet" from his Halloween costume and running around falling with his football. Such a little boy!

Here's the recipe for fun though...flour + salt + water = FUN! The goal was to make salt dough ghosts, but we ended up with an array of things. The kids loved that they got to pour and mix their own ingredients. That project has taken up a large portion of our morning and it was awesome just to talk with them and watch how independent they've gotten. Our babies are growing up!

Hoping to post pictures soon!
