Wednesday...

The kids were all so excited to be back and had a great time playing with all their toys! My brother came back with us and he's staying with us for a week and we're all really enjoying his company! Right before we left on our trip, I was in Target, and they had a bunch of toys on clearance. I saw Magic Dough there that was .50 a package and bought a few not knowing what it really was.

It's pretty crumbly so it makes a bit of a mess on the floor, but it was definitely worth a dollar! They had a great time playing with it!
In the afternoon we went to a park, and a great time was had by all!

By the time we were ready to leave, we were all sweaty from running around and having races I decided to go on a special mystery ride!

Slurpees! The girls have never had it before, and they were convinced they were eating ice cream! Either way it was a cool and yummy treat!

What a fun day!

We're Back!

Hi everyone! We're finally back from our vacation! B"H we had a great time spending time with all our grandparents aunts and uncles! Here are a few pictures from our trip...

Now... back to work!

Hi everyone! Sorry for not updating recently... We're actually out of town for the next two weeks and B"H we're having a great time! So far while we've been here we went to two parks and to the library. The kids are having a great time playing outside all day with their uncles! Pictures coming soon!

Thursday!

Today we woke up to another rainy day! The girls were really excited when I told them it was time for a project! I printed on the computer the girls' names as big as possible on the computer. We then went down to the basement. Sima traced her letters with glue, while I helped Mushka with hers. They then took packing peanuts we had recently gotten in the mail and glued it on to their names.

I have to be honest, it didn't really work out the way I imagined it too, but it doesn't really matter. The girls had fun going over the letters in their names, gluing on the peanuts and playing with them, and that's what counts!
After lunch, the girls played outside and went bike riding with Tatty. Yay! It's so much fun having him home now that he has vacation!

What a fun day!

Wednesday

Well, I checked the weather this morning and it was supposed to be thunderstorms all afternoon. We can't have a day without playing outside, so right after we finished davening we went outside, Sima got on her bike and we biked to the local park. I never did this before as I wasn't sure Sima would make it all the way there and back, however, since today Tatty was home I figured worse comes to worse he can always pick us up. No worries though, she did great!
We had a great time at the park on the swings and on the slides! Sima had a great time running from swing to swing first pushing Mushka then Shmulik then back to Mushka!
After lunch, we had a bunch of errands to do and then the girls helped me make pizza again for supper! (they were so excited they got to have pizza on a Wednesday!) And, what do you know? It never even rained!

What a fun day!

Tuesday!

I've been waiting all summer to be able to take the kids berry picking. Today was a beautiful day, not too hot, and now is prime season for blueberries so I packed up a picnic lunch and some snacks and  off we went! 

In the car I told the girls that if its blue its ready, if its green its not and they had it all drilled. When we got to the farm however, it was all blue! Yum!! Everyone had a great time picking all the blueberries and putting it in their pails.

The blueberries were amazing and they're basically all finished. Next time we'll have to pick way more! After lunch we went to check out some animals that they had on the farm.

What a fun day!

We're back!

Hi everyone! Sorry I haven't posted in a while we've been super busy! We had lots of guests since last Thursday. We all really enjoyed having them over and now that they left we can continue our regular schedule. Not to say though that we didn't do anything while they were here. We baked, biked, went to a state park, visited some animals, played with bubbles and even gave our car a car wash! I got pictures of some of it but not all...
