Penny Spinners and Dinosaurs

Image
Our ping pong table was finally delivered..and with it came tons of card board. Like all kids D grew up being a big fan of boxes and now H is following suit.. but usually they have always focused on playing inside the box.. So I was pleasantly surprised and incredibly pleased when I asked H to help put the little cardboard pieces in the recycling and he replied.. 'I think we can make something with them' And so I went where everyone goes.. Pinterest! We started with making dinosaurs. My proportions were all over the place.. T-Rex was especially disastrous since he could seem to stand upright.. but the kids didn't seem to care too much. and then we made penny spinners.. except we used quarters.. I have a few more things I'd want to try with them.. not too complicated.. I like the easy crafts.. source  I bought some multicolored yarn  source  the car looks easy.. and cute..  With the holidays coming closer

lately - Thanksgiving

Image
I skipped posting last week.. hope all of you celebrating had good Thanksgivings.. we had a pretty good week.. but very few pictures to prove it.. so you'll just have to take my word for it. We started Wednesday night out with dinner at a friends house.. stayed out late.. the next morning stayed in bed way longer than we usually do.. and spent most of Thanksgiving day doing nothing.. just as planned. We ate chicken instead of turkey.. played Blokus with the boys, it was our first time playing it and everyone enjoyed it. Friday we shopped a bit online.. we did venture out to the stores in the afternoon.. we were supposed to pick up a ping pong table we had bought online but when we got there it took the store 20 minutes to locate it..inform us that it will not fit into our minivan and then it took another 40 mins to return it. That was enough Black Friday for us.. We ended the night with a movie.. We watched Jack Frost..  Saturday followed a pretty similar pattern of

Sick Day

Image
So the little one brought home a cough last week..he's all better now.. but I got bronchitis and D has a touch of pneumonia.. :( Have you guys seen Haunting of Hill House? M and I currently watching it.. not binging.. one nightmare inducing episode a night is really enough. It is very good. I'm currently reading Next Year in Havana.. I am really liking it.. I am half way through. I especially am loving the historical aspect to it.. I am constantly finding myself wikipedia-ing things about Cuba while I read.  I'm currently drinking lots and lots of tea.. they have a tea for just about everything..                             Etsy             Instagram             Twitter             Bloglovin

        Weaver - Taken in a small concrete hut in Pakistan, a hut as large as a small bedroom, a hut with four men and two children weaving together various pieces of wicker furniture. This particular man, whose hand is the focus was working on a chair. Such intricate labor intensive work requiring such attention to make a piece so often taken for granted.

I'm feeling a little uninspired this weekend.. I started and restarted this post a few times.. just not feeling it.. so instead of a regular post I thought of doing a post of inspiration this week.. source   source   source I've been thinking about H's upcoming January birthday party.. he is already set on his theme.. but how fun would an art party be? Though this would obviously be more suited as a summer party. source and how cute as these source                           Etsy             Instagram             Twitter             Bloglovin
