The person that coined the term, “lazy days of summer” did not have KIDS!

No lazy here.

But that’s okay, because I love sharing the energy, enthusiam and joy that my kids have when they are outside enjoying God’s playground. 

Who needs toys when you have DIRT!?

 

  

 

  I recycled a stack of those pesky magazine subscription post cards to make this little practice book.  

Each morning the kindergartner-to-be gets to fill out a new postcard to get a bit of ADDRESS PRACTICE!  

 Maybe I’ll send one in and he’ll get a surprise magazine at the end of the summer!   

 

Princess Art Easel = 5 Bucks

 

Frilly Little Pink Dress = A Buck

 Angel Wings = A Quarter

Giggles and Grins = Free

Next time you see a “GARAGE SALE” sign… you may just want to take a quick peek. 

You never know what kind of sweet lovelies you might find!!

 

You can’t possibly do a clown week without a…

PIE – IN – THE – FACE – SMASH:

And I promise you…

if you are ever feeling down

all you need to do is put on a multi-colored WIG!

I swear you can’t possibly be grumpy 

when you are wearing clown hair!    

I may actually go to clown school when the kids are all grown up. 

Happy days to you!

Check out this extraordinary MONSTER party my friend Kate {her blog here} put on this weekend!!!

Isn’t this ridiculously amazing???

Party perfection. 

And Kate claims that she isn’t “creative”!!! Ya. Ummmm…  if this isn’t creative brilliance I don’t know what is!

I think my favorite detail might be the family MONSTER TEES! OR maybe that wildly fun birthday-boy hat! Or possibly the monster mustaches!

No way, I can’t pick just one…  LOVE EVERYTHING!

Are you on smile OVERLOAD yet? I sure am.

 I only wish I could have been there to see all this delightfulness in person! 

Thanks for the INSPIRATION Kate. Can’t wait to see you in a few weeks!!!
