Christmas Ornament Crazy!

We did this craft at our Super Saturday we had back in September, and I had some extra supplies. I sold some to get rid of the extras. They were really cute!

Good Works Lesson

For my Good Works lesson, I made little flippy books for the girls to work out of for a couple of weeks. They were able to pass off 2 of the PP requirements.

I glued a bunch of envelopes together and made pullout tabs for them to read the scripture that was on it, and write down the good deeds they saw done that day. Then on the back they wrote the good deeds they would do for the next day. They turned out cute, and helped motivate the girls to get their Personal Progress done!

I do love yellow and brown together!

July 29th...the best day EVER!

For my birthday we got to go to church and meeting all day and have the sister's come over for dinner! Sunday's are always busy days for us. Our friends came over for cake.

It was a party!

I made my own cake, but it was yummy so I didn't mind.

I made this cake stand...it was one of the crafts I came up with at our Super Saturday!

Tye Die Crazy!

Sooo, last summer my brother tie dyed firework shirts for us. The kids were begging to do more this summer, and that is JUST what we did.

We did one round which involved about 20 shirts. We started soaking and tying a little late, which put us dying in the freezing cold dark. It was so so funny and made for an interesting challenge.

Our favorite part in opening them up after they have soaked for a day. Gramma even got in on it!

After we opened them up there were shirts everywhere. Totally hippiville over here!

We did white fabric too.

Megan's scale shirt came out awesome.

So after the 1st round, we became obsessed and had to do more. That turned into like 40 more white things. We hit every store for white shirts and dye. We are so crazy!

(sorry, loading pictures too quick)

Aren't we way cute?

This is Logan's shirt. He loves it.

We were smart and tied all the shirts the night before we dyed them all. It is quite a science.

All the whites before.

We soak all the shirts in soda ash first. That is the annoying part.

It is AWESOME!!! Thanks to my hippy brother for introducing us to the world of tie dye, and a new craze!

I will post pictures of more awesomeness later!

Angry Birds LIVE!

We were in charge of our 2 ward combined YW/YM activity this week. We decided to do Angry Birds Live! We painted balls, took lots of boxes, and used a resistance band for the sling shot. We divided into 2 groups, and had a 5 minute scripture chase. How ever many scriptures they got equalled how many birds they were allowed to shoot. The kids loved it, even though it was a little organized chaos!

I made 70 angry bird cupcakes. It was serious craziness at my house...frosting everywhere! (my friend watched my 2 crazy kids and Hallie napped for most of the time...I'm soooo missing my Mallory)

Our little kids wanted to play it so bad, so this morning we went to the park and let them play. Fun idea for kids. We melted at the park though. We met at 9:30 and by 10:00 we were dying from the heat. I think it was 106 at 10 this am!! Crazy crazy!!!
