This and That

Aside from all the rain we have been having lately, we are trying to get outside as much as possible.  We have been to the playground, the nature trail, our deck, and played on the driveway.  On our rainy days we are getting creative inside with art projects and fun dinners.  Here's a look at a little of this and that:

 I printed off some pictures of flower and butterflies and let the girls go to town painting.

 Elizabeth LOVES art at school and this activity was her jam!

 My sweet little artists.

 One rainy night, I decided to get creative with our breakfast for dinner.

We do breakfast for dinner every Thursday and I try to mix it up- pancakes, waffles, cinnamon rolls, muffins, etc.

I made this unicorn pancakes (idea from Pinterest) and the girls LOVED them!

 Elizabeth took it all apart as she ate

But she ate every bite of that unicorn :)

 A little art time on the driveway.

One side is a white board and one side is a chalk board.

 Elizabeth checked out an "Elsa braid book" from the library.

Most braids were very complicated, but I did my best with this one before school one day.

 One rainy day, Caroline asked to use a kindle and have rest time.

I said sure.

She then asked for her robe and blanket.

She sat like this for 45 minutes. :)

 We had ice cream sandwiches on the driveway...

See the chocolate on Elizabeth's dress and the ice cream on Caroline's face?

 It was nice one or two days last week and we enjoyed popsicles outside

 And then some art time

 Followed by a short walk to the playground :)

Love this sweet girl!

Happy Thursday y'all!
