Fun Mom Day

Jordyn and Tyler have each been taking an Arts and Crafts class

through the city for the last week and a half, and absolutely LOVE it.

They just can't get enough. So when Tyler came home yesterday, and

said they'd raced milk jug lid boats down a foil river, I thought,

"Hey, I can do that!" I pulled out a bunch of foil, made a little

river with walls, found each kid a lid, and made some boats out of

them. We took them outside, and the kids were just squealing with

delight.

This is when Jordyn proclaimed that I was the best mom ever! We turned

on the hose, and let the races begin. They all got soaking wet, and

laughed the whole time. It definitely gave me motivation to do more

fun and cool things for them. More than the usual park and playground

and friends, which are all great and totally fun, but something

different. I'm going to try and do something weekly from now on.

Now, on to photo evidence.

Our little boats, sailing away. 

These pictures I just had to throw in.  A bunch of the neighbor kids were out slip'n'sliding, and when they all left, Reagan decided to take the thing to herself.  She's become quite adventurous lately, and she was sliding down it like a pro!
