Playing with lots of Christmas gifts...
including this "Intro to Origami" set. Payton made all sorts of animals and things...all of which Parker wanted to keep for himself. :)
Playing a lot of Play Dough, or "dough dough" as Parker calls it.
(Side note: I got the Preschool Play Dough "Perfect Pop Maker" this week on clearance at Target and it is awesome!!)
This is one activity that both boys enjoy and will actually play nicely together while doing it. It's hard finding something for kids 6 years apart in age to play together. But Play Dough seems to bridge the gap in age.
Fishing in our little pond out front.
Payton started it last week with his friends and Parker insisted that Brian take him fishing on Saturday morning when Payton was still at his sleepover.
Playing a little flag football.
A good friend of mine organized a flag football game for her son & his friends. I was amazed at how many kids showed up! We actually had to split it into 2 games because there were so many kids.
Of course Brian coached Payton's team. :)
And Payton thoroughly enjoyed getting disgustingly dirty.
Enjoying some awesome weather.
The other day we laid out a big ol beach towel in the driveway and just soaked up the cool breeze mixed with warm sun. I enjoyed a cup of coffee while Parker played with an old-school toy. Do you remember "Wooly Willy?" He loved it.
And then we went to the park and took a long walk through the wooded path. For whatever reason, this path which is usually packed with rowdy kids, was totally quiet and serene.
Parker found a huge stick to drag along the path and we sauntered through the woods enjoying the afternoon sun setting overhead.
What have you been enjoying lately?
