May 31, 2014 By Julie 13 Comments

We were bored. It was hot. I wanted the boys to do something together and outside. Went to my handing dandy pinterest board. Nothing jumped off the page at me. Decided to grab a bunch of vehicles.

Like so many others, I want my children to know what Christmas is really about: Jesus, the Son of God, took on flesh to so that he could lay that life down for sinful, desperate, me. The story of the first Christmas is crazy cool and can capture a child’s imagination like only a true […]

Colander Madness and Ice Cube Mayhem

September 16, 2012 By Julie Leave a Comment

As this summer heat drags on in Central Texas, Owen and I have been trying to find new ways to stay entertained in the AC. I never knew that I would get cabin fever in the summer. At least we shouldn’t have this problem in the winter. We’ll see. Here are two simple activities that […]

Sidewalk Paint

July 31, 2012 By Julie Leave a Comment

I’ve been trying to introduce Loopy to more arts and crafts type activities, since he usually just likes doing physical/noisy things. I found this idea on the blog Domestic Charm (check it out).

The Wonderful World of Glow Sticks

May 19, 2012 By Julie Leave a Comment

It seems that Loopy gets new toys when his mommy is getting bored of the same old same old. So off to the dollar store we went. When I found these… I knew we’d struck gold. As soon as we got home, I grabbed our old Easter eggs, cracked those sticks and stuffed them in.  […]
