The Entertainment Committee

Today we enjoyed a quick school lesson in the morning before heading into "town" for:
  • 2 hours of Swim and Gym
  • a quick stop at Sally Beauty Supply to pick up some special shampoo to wash the green out of Jane's hair
  • a very quick stop to pick up two $5 hot-n-ready pizzas for lunch
  • 1 hour at the Discovery Center
  • 1/2 hour at Walter's well-baby check-up
  • 1 1/2 hours at the library
  • a million hours of driving from place to place
It was a fun day just enjoying time with the kiddos and having fun. We exercised our bodies, our brains and now they are all asleep. Yippee!

YESTERDAY:

After getting off to a rocky start with plenty of whining, nit-picking and frustration, we had another successful art lesson. Why do we do that? Do we just have to get it out of our systems? I wish we could just skip all the bickering and go straight to the fun lesson....that's my official wish for next week, a flawlessly fun art lesson.

The finished products of our watercolor seascapes.

Are they not gorgeous?

I told you we are awesome artists here in the Bird Nest.

That is some very nice artwork there.
Sadly, my kids artwork would be superior to mine. They draw and color all day long.
