Disney Week

So it's been a little bit since my last post...sorry about that...

This week at my job it was Disney week and as a bonus my brother Buddy was able to come. 

On Monday it was Lion King day...We made paper plate lion king masks....there was a lot of roaring lol.




On Wednesday I had the privilege of being in charge again. It was Frozen day and in honor of Queen Elsa we made snow paint













My brother decided that green glitter would be perfect to add to it :)

Today we made monster slime....ooey gooey and ewwww as some of the kids exclaimed. The link for this uses it for halloween, but we used it for Monster Inc. Day

I have more to write about, but my best friend, Trixie, is leaving for Florida next Wednesday :'( , and I must go see her today.

On the bright side, my boyfriend and two of my friends are going to the Wilds of New England tomorrow for their young adult retreat. Feel free to click on the links to check it out.

Have a great rest of your week and a great weekend!
God Bless!

Chill Kind of Day


Yesterday was my brother Robbie's first birthday. He's 1!!!!!



He had great fun stuffing cup cake in his face and playing with his presents. I got him a stuffed polar bear, which he LVES!!!! lol.
How could you not lve me????

So it was my first day being in charge of my preschool group. I would say it went pretty well. We only had two kids today. It was a chill kind of day....nothing too organized. They played on the play ground a lot. They lved putting me and the counselor, who was working with me, in "jail". We broke out, but they always managed to put us back in...
They also played with the color wheel.




Each color would mean they would have to do a different thing. For example,
red --> jump
blue --> run
green --> skip
yellow --> walk backwards







They also had great fun with the sprinkler. I would turn the water down really low and then up quickly and it would make the water shoot up in the air (of course getting me wet as well -_- ).

Like I said, today is a chill kind of day....so not much to report...
On Wednesday, I'm taking my brother Buddy to the amusement park....CAN'T WAIT!!!!!
Have a great day!

They Just Keep Getting Older...

So today my brother Buddy turns 4...
It almost feels like yesterday, that my parents came into the living room and told us we were going to have another sibling. You see. I already have three sisters and the youngest was six when we found out there was going to be another one. We were surprised but happily so. I've always wanted a brother and I am thrilled to have not just one but two now.
Today for my brother's birthday, our neighbor gave us their swing set and two men from our church came over. Both of them have been friends of mine since I was eight and they took to Buddy like he was one of their brothers. Buddy, of course, invited them to have lunch with us and they are all happily playing Mario Kart in the living room while we wait for our scrumptious meal of McDonald's chicken nuggets and fries.


*sigh* time just flies and sometimes you just want it to slow down. I encourage everyone to make sure they spend some quality time with lved ones...maybe do something they really enjoy. 


My week 5 of camp ended today. Next week my co-counselor will not be there, which puts me in charge. Time to test exactly how well I do with leading a group of preschoolers. 

Well I'll leave you all to your weekend. I hope it's a great one!

~God Bless!
