Take A Trip Tuesday 06/11/13

So, yesterday was "Take A Trip Tuesday" and we went to the House Of Java. We were accompanied by my mom, younger sister and younger brother. While the adults enjoyed chatting and coffee, the little's enjoyed playing in the BIG play area. 
She played and played and made some friends too.......
She also ran Aunt Toto ragged LOL..........Poor Tori, always a good sport............they LOVE each other.

 I enjoyed chatting with Gabe and mom...oh and my mother in law who called in the middle telling me about her Take A Trip Tuesday and let me tell you.....that's a good story for another time LOL...
 All in all it was a good day and I really should get Mia out more because she just LOVES it! Don't know where we'll be going next Tuesday but I hope to take a trip to the zoo soon.

Make Something Monday 06/10/13

So Monday was "Make something Monday" and we chose to do some Christmas crafts.......in this house Christmas and Halloween are always being prepared for LOL. 

So we decided on a Christmas Ornament for GG Nana's "Grandchildren Christmas Tree" and a Christmas puzzle to frame in Mia's room for decor when December comes!


So we decided to start with the Ornament first. Mia was really excited because she loves to paint and as you can see in this picture......she loves to paint herself..
....LOL. We decided to use Blue and Yellow. I don't know what design we were going for really she just went to town, so I figured it was her first piece of art and it would be accepted no matter what! Ha
Here she is deciding on whether to add or keep it the way it is...............
And apparently that requires sniffing it too......LOL
This is her finished product.....GG Nana, we will be sending this to you so you can put it away for the tree this year! 
And then there's the puzzle we did. We glued it and are going to frame it and put it away until Christmas. She has puzzle's of all the characters and we are going to use them in her room for decor at Christmas. This is the first one we've put together though. 

Well it was a successful first "Make Something Monday" and we can't wait till next Monday. Next I will be posting out "Take A Trip Tuesday" so STAY TUNED...................
