Snoqualmie Falls

Upon Andrew's request, we ventured out to Snoqualmie Falls. Andrew stated: "When it is rainy, the falls are full." He was correct. It was a little drizzly today. A perfect day to visit the falls. --Emily

Shirt Making

Starting our summer fun with some shirt making. The boys each picked out a Neon shirt. Then they picked a phrase they wanted, typed them out on my machine, printed and ironed them on. It was so fun and they turned out so darn cute! Andrew's shirt says, "Sheen do not press this button!" Its a phrase from one of his favorite shows. Jacob's shirt says, "BEEP" (that's just Jacob being silly). --Emily

Lego Advent Calendar

Being a mom of two very active boys, I am constantly thinking of different ways to keep their brains active and bodies entertained. 

With that being said, this year's advent calendar was so fun to put together. I sewed 25 little bags. My friend Rebecca helped me with the #s. I then filled them with different Lego guys. I purchased the "Lego Advent" calendar and pulled it all apart. It basically was filled with guys. In my opinion it needed more active play. So we made:

Santa's work shop. . . 

chunky snow men. . . 

some ski slopes. 

One morning they had a fire to put out.

They even made a forest of Christmas trees. It was a Advent calendar success. The boys loved it! What the heck am I going to do next year? --Emily
