It was a rainy morning but between rain drops we went out and collected leaves and this is what we made with wax paper, crayons, an iron, construction paper, glue and yarn. I love them, they are so pretty and the kids had a blast. The best thing, because they knew we were having a new little boy coming to visit they made him one too. So here they are…
And the left over leaves. They kids had a blast and then they also cut and glued tons of scraps everywhere.

Another show and tell.
Mike made this…
for this…
It didn’t come with one and he wasn’t about to lean it up on the building so Monday afternoon he made this and it works like a charm. I love the florescent green, can’t lose it as easily this way.

One more show and tell but nothing grand, just cute…
Shadows in my lamp shade. Martha Stewart had the idea, I just used it. I’m not a paper cutter but they didn’t turn out to bad and really easy too.
So there, that’s the rest of the week. Tonight is game night at mama’s with spaghetti and garlic bread for supper and homemade brownies. Then a few games and fun.
Oh do you want to know…..I did get the new little boy. He starts on Monday. He’s only here a couple days a week. He is a charmer and will fit right in with the others. Gonna love it!!!
Take care and have a blessed afternoon and a terrific, relaxing weekend.

The leaf art turned out great! I have done this with my kids too. I use to be a Director of several Child care Centers. Don't know if I told you that or not? LOL Love the shade cutouts too! The kickstand is a great idea! Hope you have a wonderful weekend!
Blessings,

Julie, all of this is so gorgeous! How did you guys do that leaf thing? You iron wax paper? I didn't even know there was anything called wax paper! :D
Mike make his own bike stand? You guys are so creative and it even works. I get inspired to do something with my life.
That lampshade screams out loud- You are a great paper cutter!
Great idea! You are so creative! You should hold workshops for useless mothers like me also!
