I'm thanking God for his provisions. Nick had a good festival this weekend and I pray this is the start of a great season.
The kids and I stayed at home most of the time this past weekend (with one walk to the park). We kept busy, though Isabella who is more of an outdoor kind of gal would have liked for us to go somewhere. Yesterday since Nick was finally home we had a nice afternoon of shopping and had an all-you-can eat Asian dinner, yummy!
During the day though we spent the hours reading library books, using the computer, Nicky and I fixed our leaky toilet, cleaning, playing a math board game, playing Candy Land, making a planter for planting potatoes out of an empty laundry detergent bucket, putting up our continents of the world posters and figuring out where the family lives all over the world.
We bought Rosie an art kit that included different types of drawing materials and we also got her 2 sketch books, so I assume she will stay busy experimenting with that for a long time.
We still need to get soil for our potatoes and I found a great project to teach the kids about Easter so I need to get the materials for that too.
This morning Nicky and Isabella woke up very energetic (I guess most mornings they do) so they made masks out of copy paper and a pen and are running around the house roaring and chasing each other. I'm surprised Evangeline is still asleep because they are loud!
