One of the many forts they have been building.

Avery started walking around the toys on the floor, going continuously in circles. C.J. and Chance joined in, and then Brandon wanted to have fun too. Whenever he would say "freeze", they would all stop, and well, freeze.

Everyone froze!

Chance loves giving hugs, and he's good at them too. He missed Cailyn so much he just couldn't resist.

The Critters have been extremely good at getting in their single file lines, although sometimes they are more side by side than front to back! Everyone is getting ready to wash their hands before lunch. Usually, we do ladies first, but C.J., being the oldest, is quick to get in first.

C.J. and Chance's Grandma brought us a peanut butter maker. You throw some peanuts in the head of the elephant, turn the handle, and out comes delicious peanut butter. The kids loved it!

This fun project came from Family Fun magazine. I asked the kids what they wanted me to draw on their shirt. C.J. wanted a rocket, Chance a baseball, Avery a fish, and since Cailyn wasn't there when we planned them, the kids picked out a ladybug for her.

It's very simple. Get a tee-shirt, draw your design first with chalk, and then go over it with a bleach pen. It has a strong odor, so beware! Once they are washed, they're ready to wear.

I LOVE all of their funny expressions!!!
