Staycation

Well, it is back to work again for me tomorrow and Wyatt on Monday. We enjoyed a "not really planned" 10 day staycation! What did we do you ask? Well, let's see...not much!

We, meaning Wyatt,  installed 3 new, much needed ceiling fans and a new light fixture. We hung a few new things in Collins room. We decided to put a magnetic board in his room. The child is addicted to tape. Anything he can find he tapes to the walls. I bought him a bunch of miniature baseball helmets while I was in DC. I'm not even sure how many rolls of tape it took to put all those bad boys up on the walls. He hangs his pennants, he prints Mario pictures off the computer and tapes them up all over the house. When I bought new tires last week, Collin made mention of NASCAR and they just happened to have a NASCAR poster so they gave it to him. As soon as we got home he got out the scissors, his other addiction, and cut each driver out and taped them on his wall! We had to do something!!

So here is what we came up with...

We used 2 pieces of sheet metal and framed it in with some type if sheet metal edging. It actually came out really well and was much cheaper than buying a huge magnetic dry erase board. We were pretty impressed with ourselves-lol!

We went to the farmers market several times and found lots of yummy stuff!

 Tyler loves blueberries and blackberries. He managed to go through a pint of each in one day without much help.

We played outside quite a bit, mostly in the water because it was close to 100 degrees everyday. We felt like we were back in the Marshall Islands again with the heat and humidity. You just step out the door and you start sweating!

The kids love the sprinkler and who wouldn't in this heat!!

We had cookouts and company and some time just to chill. But of course the time always flies when you are having fun!

Now, back to reality.BOO!!
