Messy Monday Fun Day {Part 9}!!

WOW-is it just me, or has this summer just flown by??

This week, the girls wanted to make some bird feeders for Messy Monday Fun Day. We have mad them in several different varieties, but this week, decided to do a simple bird feeder using bread, peanut butter and bird seeds.

We simply toasted the wheat bread, and put a hole in it to thread some rope through.

Smear on the peanut butter and sprinkle on the bird seed--easy peezy!

Ta-da!!! All finished!

We think the birds will be very happy:)

Blessings,

Very Hungry Caterpillar Birthday Bash! {Em turns 3}

Here are the photos from Em's 3rd birthday bash! It was so much fun planning this party! Em picked the theme because, she just LOVES to eat (just like her Mommy:) and she also loves the Very Hungry Caterpillar book by Eric Carle!

The birthday girl was VERY happy with her party!! It was laid-back and fun and she really enjoyed just playing with family and friends:) Perfect Party!

Blessings,

Messy Monday Part 8!

For this week's Messy Monday Fun Day, we made our own finger paints!

It was super-easy and fun to make. 

All we did was combine equal parts of flour with water and then added in a little

washable tempera paint!

The girls loved watching the white change colors as they added in the various colors!

The flour made the finger paints a fun texture to work with! 

Em LOVED it:)

The messier, the better for this kid, lol.

Elle, ever-so-carefully, dipping each finger into the paint as not to mix the colors. *Sigh* She gets it from her neurotic neat-freak Mommy:)

Elle still had loads of fun, though:)

Clean up time!

We hope you are enjoying our Messy Monday Fundays---we certainly are!

Blessings,

Messy Monday Fun Day!! Part 7!

Last week, the girls and I made some really special ice cubes. We simply put water into ice trays and added food coloring to make several different colors. I then froze them a bit, added sticks to them and put them back in the freezer to harden up.

This was so fun to do! We pulled out the big, thick white butcher paper and the girls were as creative and messy as they wanted to be!

The more the ice cubes melted, the messier it got, lol:)

Clean up time!

Elle really thought that was FUN!

You should totally try it! Frugal and Fun!

Blessings,

Aria:)
