Summer Wrap Up: Monday Fun Days

Instead of going completely consecutively, I've decided to group these first few posts by category. So here's pictures from the rest of the Monday Fun Days we had this summer. 

Making and Playing with Sidewalk Paint 



Masking Tape Reveals



Hand Print Art

Lydia always takes painting very seriously



I love the chaos!!!

Finished project. I glued the pictures on before the paint had dried all the
way so it made their faces blotchy. Still cute though :)

It was so fun to do these Fun Days all summer. Definitely something I want to do again next year!

My Poor Neglected Blog!

It's sad how when my life gets busy the first thing to go is my dedication to this blog. But our life has been busy with lots of great, fun things so I can't complain. And so far I've always gotten the blog updated eventually. A lot of times this usually means I take a whole day in my PJs and do nothing but go through our pictures and blog (minus necessary interruptions by the kiddos). And today Lydia and I are feeling under the weather with a stomach bug, so I've been given the perfect excuse to lay down and update, and you all get the pleasure of a plethora of posts (about 10 give or take). Enjoy!

Instagram Revisited

For those of you who follow me on Instagram (or Facebook since I also post my Instagram posts to there) this post is going to be really redundant. I print out my blog posts and put them in a binder as kind of a family journal/scrapbook, and I want to be sure that some of my Instagram photos are included in that as well. I include some in blog posts that were about them, and sometimes I take a picture with my real camera at the same time that I take a picture with my phone, so I'll try to leave any photos that have already been posted out of this. Hopefully my memory serves me correctly. Here we go...
