Wonderful Weekend

Last Sunday, we enjoyed a picnic with our church.  We had tasty chicken, yummy desserts, and bounce houses (yes, even I bounced!).  Best of all, we were incredibly blessed to have our close family friends join us from Germany!

Lots of girl time

My dear friend, Jen

The following day, we invited our friends over for lunch and a time of fellowship.  We had a wonderful time!  We miss you!

Don't cry because it's over.  Smile because it happened.

Ooey Gooey

It has been an ooey gooey week at our house!  We made a sticky mess of old flour and water, played in the mud after the rain, and made slime in science class. 

This just wasn't enough for us.  Today, we made Oobleck!  Kenzie and Kaylie dug right in and made a mess (thankfully it's easy to clean up).  Leah was completely disgusted and wouldn't even touch it.  

This is cool!

Disgusting.

Want to make your own Oobleck?  Mix 2 parts cornstarch to 1 part water.  We added green food coloring for fun!  What do you think: Is Oobleck a liquid or a solid?  When you're done, do not wash it down the drain!  Dispose of it in a trash can.
Want to make slime?  We used this Slime recipe from the internet.  We only made half a batch for each of us.  It worked great!
