MI Happenings

So I haven't really mentioned what Dallin and I have been up to, so here it is. We have found a park near our house that we go to almost every other day. It's called Hawk Island park. Monday we went and played at the splash pad. Dallin was really had a good time. Maybe we will got to the beach at lake this week too, if it doesn't rain. All the water fun closes after Labor Day.



Dallin is also mastering video games and the computer, for better or for worse. Russ will play Mario Party with Dallin. He can do it all himself. He also can use the laptop on his own to play games. Gives him something to do while I'm doing dishes.I can't remember where I saw this idea, but Dallin loves it. We sent to the Dollar Tree and bought foam sheets. All I did was cut them into shapes and they stick to the tile and tub when they are wet. Note to anyone who tries this, the hot pink color bled and I had to scrub to get the color off. It's safe to say that those colored foams all went into the trash.

Today Dallin and I made a bubble machine. I saw the idea here. Dallin had a blast. Only twice did we have "sucking on the straw instead of blowing" incidents. The best part was I had everything on hand but the straws, and I just picked those up at the grocery store.
I saw this idea and thought it was darling, so I had to try it. It didn't turn out quite like hers, and I did it a little different (I just used an old part of jeans). So here is the finished project (And yes, that is my toilet in the background. I didn't plan the place of my photo very well I guess.)

I'm not sure what I think yet. I don't know if it looks good or just like I'm a little girl. I'll let you know what I think after wearing it a bit.
