Just for fun I decided to document a week of activities with Jolie.  Today we made some squishy balls out of balloons and salt.  Super easy, super cheap and super fun!  She had a great time trying to juggle them afterwards.  We are patiently waiting for daddy to come home now so that we can watch him do his famous juggling for us.  He’s a pro at it!  Hurry up Daddy!

Oooo those are so fun! I used to make them when I was little. :) Be careful though, if you pinch off a little bubble they can pop and spray flour all over!

Those are really pretty balloons, too, all pearly! Looks like fun!

Oh, that looks like lots of fun! Don’t think I’d try to store them over the winter, though!

what a fun idea for a small (and not so small) child – entertaining and when finished – good to tie inflated balloons to as a way to keep them in place.

I wasn’t sure what to expect with the title of “squishy balls” – these look like they’re so much fun!! What a fun mom you are!

MY Family Pictures

June 29, 2009

It’s been awhile since we had family pictures done.  The last time was when Jemma was a newborn.  My husband has been bugging me to take some new family pictures for awhile now, but I’ve been a bit busy and it’s SO hard to take your own pictures!  Anyway, it was his birthday last weekend…we had a great time celebrating.  I made sure to book myself out for the weekend so I could devote it to my hubby instead of work.  One of his gifts was my promise to do family pictures within the week.  Yesterday was the day!  So, here they are.  This is as good as it gets with a wireless remote and no one behind the camera to get the kids to look at it and smile…LOL  Enjoy!
