Free day friday

You won't find us home very often during the week. On Mondays we are at church most of the day. Tuesday and Thursdays are preschool days for Chi and errand days for Korra and I. That leaves Wednesday and Friday to be home! Wednesday is usually family day, because Dan has Wednesdays off!! So Friday the kids and I try to do something fun. Sometimes we have a playdate and other times we stay in our pjs till noon!!!! Today we made green playdough, but not before......Before we made this we used the flour to do ........................

trace different letters and shapes.


I love homemade playdough!!!! Here is the recipe we used:
1cup water
1tbsp veg. oil
1/2 cup salt
1tbsp cream of tarter (this is what makes it stay good for a while)
food coloring (green in honor of the upcoming holiday!)
1 cup flour
combine water, oil, salt, cream of tarter, and food coloring. Cook in a pan until warm. Remove from heat and add the flour. Stir and knead until smooth!

snow day craft project

The blizzard finally arrived... so we made cards for our Christmas caroling adventure that we are doing on Sunday. We made reindeer out of Korra's feet and wrote: you are very deer to God!
As you can tell somebody is not happy...maybe it is because I forgot to do her hair?

no rain on our parade

With all the rain it is not always easy to find something to do. Today we painted in the rain.....
I put on Chi's rain coat and place a few drops on food coloring on some thick paper and let him take his work outside......
