Play Dough

It doesn't matter how old you are...... it is so fun to play with play dough. All of our store bought play-dough has dried up, so we made our own. Oh what fun. The kids loved playing with it when it was warm, and since then we keep it in the refrigerator, so it is nice and cold. Cookie cutters, rolling pins, toothpicks, corn pokers, play dough toys, what ever.... Here is the recipe:

1 cup flour

1/2 cup salt

1 Tbsp. oil

1 tsp. cream of tartar

1 cup water

food coloring

Mix ingredients in a sauce pan. Cook over low heat until thickened. Play with it. Store in refrigerator.

Spring Swim

We went for a swim in my aunt's heated pool. Loved it! We are sitting by "Pirate Rock." Her grand kids named it. In the summer it will be a fountain. We love the water.

Security Blanket

Miss M loves this purse. She carries it everywhere. A few weeks ago, I noticed she started carrying around two purses. When I asked her why, she said she couldn't fit any more in her princess purse. It brought tears to her eyes. So, I cleaned it out. This is what I found:

1 spiral notebook, 2 pads of paper, 1/2 of a credit card, 1 headband, 5 rings, 7 earrings, 9 bracelets, 2 necklaces, 1 crown, 1 broach, 2 lip glosses, 1 chap stick, 5 magnets, 1 brush, 1 comb, 1 car, 1 dart, 2 barbie shoes, 2 barbie plates, 1 barbie bowling pin, 1 barbie purse, 1 barbie skirt, 1 barbie hat, 1 barbie leg warmer, 4 barrettes, 1 rubber band, 1 singing baby toy, 1 peg, 1 triangle block, 1 bead, 1 ring purse, 1 spoon, 1 fork, 1 plate, 2 pairs of glasses, 2 hand mirrors, 4 table cloth holders, 1 baby bottle, 1 pair of white dress gloves, 1 letter from grandma, 1 slice of play cheese, 1 shower curtain hook, 1 paint swatch, 21 game cards, 1 doll, 1 phone, 8 gold coins, 1 piece of foam, 1 foam jack o lantern, 1 key, 1 blush brush, $40.53 play money, $4.07 real money, and last but not least 96 pieces of paper. She was not happy while we were cleaning. It was a little invasive for her, but the final product was great. We put back only what she needed, phone, glasses, brush, money, and paper pad. As soon as we were done, she took her purse upstairs and dumped her whole jewelry box in it. This is her security blanket.

Happy First Day of SPRING!!!!!!!!!!

I love spring. We have had crazy weather this past week. That is what spring is all about. The weather can't decide what it wants to do, so it just teases us. One day it is so warm, we don't even need jackets, the next day, hail. I love it. But, it is officially spring today. Happy, happy spring!

20 pounds!!!!!!!

Guess who lost 20 pounds? Yes, that is right. My husband. He has been eating better, (more fresh food), and watching his portions. He has also been exercising 3 times a week. Yes, he does carry the kids around the house in his backpack. And, yes, they love it. And of course, as is everything to motivate my husband, it is to prepare for the hunt. Way to go love! Keep up the good work!

We're ready!

Whenever we are packing to go to Grandma's, this is what happens. Both kids jump in the big suitcase, buckle up, and yell, "We're ready!" Then they both laugh like I would zip them up and throw them in the car. We had panned a trip for this weekend, but due to other family happenings we will be heading to Grandma's in a few weeks. We all wish we were there right now, and the kids are READY!!!!!
