::$60 bucks well spent::

So we have this tiny sandbox that the kids (and the neighbor kids) LOVE, but with all the use it got, it ran out of sand. So this morning we went and got new, colored sand and lots of new shovels and toys for it. They LOVE it! It looked cool for about 10 minutes with all the different

colors, and now that it's been all mixed together it's kind of just purple, but still fun. Thanks, Crayola, for inventing colored sand (why didn't I think of that?)!!

::hot date::

Last night we couldn't decide what to do. Movie? Nah, too tired to sit through Narnia. Basement? Nah, next step is wiring, and we need some help. Homework? Naaaah. Nobody wants to do homework! So we decided to go eat, but the kids were going cRaZy 'cause they've been inside most of the week 'cause of the weather. So we went to McDonalds and ate and talked while they played. Jealous, right?

::any time is naptime::

"chloe?!?" no answer. when i went to find her, she was laying just like this; half on Matt's nightstand and half on the bed. The nightstand is as good a place as any for a nap, right?

::little gymnast::

A couple weeks ago, Chloe finished up her gymnastics and had a performance night. She did great! We got to see how much she's learned throughout the year and how strong she's gotten. Plus she was really funny, so that's always fun. Porter's favorite part was the end (probably cause the floor was empty and he could do what "Choey" was doing).
