Monday Madness

The kids have started "collections" of leaves, feathers, rocks, etc.  Most afternoons they look for items to add to their stash.

Arts & Crafts

It's too hot outside, so we opted for some inside fun today!

painting butterfly fans
 

Later this afternoon, Reagan attended a birthday party for a friend at the movie theatre and then we went back to school shopping.  My big girl is going to be a 1st grader in 3 weeks!

Peach Smoothies

We love to visit the "peach man" every week and get fresh fruit.  Tonight, the kids decided they would like to make peach smoothies.

when did they get so big?

Mermaids

Reagan learned how to draw mermaids this week.  She made our family into a mermaid family. 

The Sandidge Family as mermaids
(notice the girls have on bikinis ~ Reagan said this was to cover their "booties" to keep the fish from biting them, and so we would know which ones were girls)

Monday Play

Since today was to be the coolest day this week (a high of only 96!), we took advantage of the shade and played outside after school/camp.
