Crafty Break

This time last year we were soaking up the sun lounging next to the Gulf of Mexico. It was heavenly - one of the best vacations we've ever had!

This year our schedules didn't warrant a sunny paradise for Spring Break which was actually a blessing since Molly's been battling an upper respiratory infection for close to two weeks.

To kick off our break today was Crafty Monday - crafts and experiments from Molly up until Molly down.

We painted with shaving cream. 

We blew our paint. 

We discovered paint blowers much more powerful than a five year old with a stuffy nose and cough.

Paint was swirled, twirled, and stirred.

And there was lots and lots of drying time.

Our final Easter Egg banner hangs on the mantel.

We made (and stole bites) bird feeders.

And hung them on a tree.

We even had some visitors for lunch.

We made mini volcanoes - thanks JEB. 

Which quickly turned into some type of chemical mixing experiments.

We made a puppet stage. 

 

And much to Daddy's dismay we played with an abundance of shaving cream in the bath. 

Overall I think we had an awesome first day of break and I'm looking forward to what tomorrow might bring.
