Weekend Project?

Our little man loves to help!  He sanded the project like a pro!  A boy after his Papa's heart!  

Ok, so we thought this was going to be a "weekend" project.  It ended up being a 5 day project, so a "week" project.  We LOVE how it turned out.  It really looks great in our kitchen.  Also, the color was a mistake, but we love it!  We wanted black, but the color turned out to be a dark blue.  Our kitchen colors are red, white & blue.  So it works!  Yea! 

Everyone else in Hecknville, is doing great!  The 1st daughter had her first gymnastics class.  She did great, but afterwards she told me "I wanted Ballet classes instead".  So she will be starting that in the Fall.  

Ok, until next time....

A day in the life of living in Hecknville....

Today after a trip to the store, the 1st daughter & son water painted.  What fun they had!  We have water painted before, but this time the 1st daughter really took her time to do her picture.  Also, we bought the "paint with water" book.  She loved it!  The 1st son, well he is 2 years old, so he enjoyed it as much as a 2 year old would.  For about 3 minutes.  It was so nice to see our daughter really take time and pride in her work.  

  Also, while shopping I found a great find!  This last year at my MOPS group we had a collage professor recommend this video.  So, today I found it and bought it.  The 1st daughter & son watched it and loved it.  They even started to sing the songs, after just one time watching.  Yea! So, if you need a gift or if you would like something to help your wee one with reading I would try this...
