    We’ve started setting up for Halloween! We spent last weekend getting the homemade scarecrow out and put up. We had to dig around to find some of the parts after the move. Landon was super excited. He was also a great helper! After that Brad mowed the lawn. Landon has a bubble mower and loves…

  • Pumpkin Craft

    Pumpkin Craft

    I don’t quite know what to call this pumpkin creation. It’s really like the starched snowflake Christmas tree ornaments, but not with starch. Sort of like paper mache, but not paper.  I think I’ve used up the last of my creative juice for today, so pumpkin craft it is… maybe pumpkin mache? This is messy and…

    Spider Counting Game

    Landon has been chugging away at learning numbers. He’s able to count to the mid twenties except he ALWAYS skips 15. It’s ok – when he was 2-ish he would always count: 1-2-3-4-9-10, and be SO excited that he could count to 10. This is a great Halloween themed game and only costs $1.00 to…

    Leaf Stamps

    A few days ago we made some leaf creations and did some rubbings of them. Since we’re “officially” in fall now I wanted to do a variety of fall crafts and activities. Landon’s friend Mackenzie was coming over in the afternoon so I saved this project for when she would be here! We started the project…

    Everyday Life

    The last two weekends we’ve gone out to 2 different public events in our area. Some Saturdays we just stay home and lounge around the house. Brad and I love that. Landon doesn’t do too well with that. He gets too stir crazy (read: get’s into trouble) unless we’re home with some major plans of…
