Rice Krispie Houses

Hunter and Brendan 'building' their house.

Me, 'building' the foundation for the houses (ie. heating the marshmallows).

Jett and Justin 'testing' the building materials.

Josie was praying that the Big Bad Wolf wouldn't eat her house!

Josie and I with our houses.

Josie's house.

My house (that is supposed to be a wreath to the right of the door).

Hiking in Fontenelle Forest

We are doing the ABC's of activities. To date, we have done 9 of the 26 letters of the alphabet. For our 'F' activity, we chose to go hiking at Fontenelle Forest in Bellevue. Jett wanted to find a dinosaur, Josie was just happy to be the leader, and I wanted to get out of the house because it was 53 and sunny!
