The past few weekends we've been prepping the boys' walls for painting. They should be finished Saturday!! Then on to paint. We've been staring at so many blues and greys. I circled our top choice currently. If it isn't right I'll paint over it. I wanted grey on the bottom, but this light blue has been my top choice the whole.time. I never found a grey I liked as much.
That will be fun to finally finish.
Our cushions were getting a bit dingy. So I sewed some new covers from some samples my mother-in-law gave me. Thanks, Cindy! Yes. They are all different sizes because I measured once and cut and messed up the size of two of them. Oh, well.
At the store we found a music box cookie canister for $1. We ate the cookies. The metal canister is now Warbie's bank. And after doing all sorts of sound experiments on the music box part, the boys took out their tools and dissected it. There were gears and springs and wheels and all sorts of fun things. Unfortunately it was rivited in a few places and so it didn't go back together.
And look at this cool rocking horse I won at a local charity auction. It snowed the night of the auction and we spent much of the next day outside and the next day. But the horse has had lots of love. We are currently rainy Prince Caspian and the boys are making swords and bow and arrows and riding the horse.
Books finished: 8 so far
