Mom & Kids Day

We have been having a great summer and it has gone way too fast and I can't believe that soon both of my girls will be in school. I decided I wanted to take a day and just hang out with my kids no friends, no phone, no distractions. I let the girls pick what ever they wanted to do. We woke up and had breakfast (waffles) we went to the park. After we tried to go to the library but they were closed. We came home and watched Max and Ruby. We then started the craft festival we made heart hands.
 
 We attempted at making rock candy but it hasn't turned out too well I am going to add more sugar to it and hope it works out they were very excited about it if not I will have to go buy some and pretend it come from our project!
 We made colored salt then made pictures out of it.
After we watched a movie with popcorn. To end the day we went to Grandma Nae's birthday diner it was a fun day. It takes a lot of patience and energy to do whatever your kids want to do and by the end of the day it made me so appreciative that my kids know how to entertain themselves! They loved it so much and have talked about it ever since I am hoping to make it a habit at least once a month.

Good job that is a great idea to do once a month. The kids can sure wear you out if you did everything they wanted to do.
