A visit from the Mann's.

My in-law's have been in town for about a week and half.. and we're having an amazing time visiting with them! Tony was able to stay home all week, it's been wonderful but it's going way toooo fast. Here's a glimpse of what we've been up to...

eating yummy food
watching movies
S.P.O.I.L.I.N.G the Grandchild
playing lots and lots and lots of games
going for walks
enjoying little Ezra together
shopping
visiting the dancing fountains


Tomorrow my Mom's going to keep Ezra while we go on a double date. We're planning on dinner and a movie (The Time Traveler's Wife) ..can't wait to see it!


SO.. that's what WE'VE been up to! Pictures to come later.

we made finger paint!

We used this recipe.
I don't know if it was the best recipe ever .. but a two year old isn't really paying much attention to the quality of paint. He had fun helping me make it and MORE fun using it!!!

So here's what ya do..

Get your helper and your ingredients ready.
Mix ingredients in pan, heat 15 minutes and let cool.


Get your helper naked down to his diaper- hopefully it's your child and not your spouse. ;)

Scoop cooled paint into separate containers.

Add food coloring until you're happy with the color.

Lay down lots and lots of newspaper to cover the surface where your little artist will paint.
And let them GO TO TOWN!!!
