Ordinary Days: Photo Journey (1)

At the urging of some friends, I am going to start posting some photo glimpses into some of our daily activities.  Since I'm so incredibly far behind in scrapbooking and because so many of my family isn't on facebook (where I share so much of our daily lives), this photo journey will help remind us of all the ordinary days that are priceless. 

I haven't felt so well the past couple of days, so I was thrilled to get outside and spend a bit of time working on VBS prep work tonight.  I was anxious to try out my idea of making bamboo poles out of cardboard tubing (fabric bolts).   Sneak peak:

While we were waiting for it to dry, Bradlee was getting a bit bored and wanted to go play at a neighbors house with Peyton.  Peyton really didn't want a tag-a-long so we had to come up with an idea to keep him busy and happy.

 Several weeks ago, I finally received my box of busy bags from a swap I participated in. It was the perfect time to grab one that was just perfect to play with outside. Bradlee loved playing clothes line.

He had a bucket of soapy water, one with clean water, some clothes cut out of felt, clothes pins, and a make shift clothes line that Kevin temporarily put up for him.  He was happy, busy, and VERY much occupied for a good solid 30 minutes.  Success!

Oh......and let's not forget he made sure and turned this activity in to a typical boy version.......

He had to make sure the clothes were GOOD and muddy first.
