Harvest Party

Tonight was our harvest party that our church hosted for our community. It was a great time. We had great games, crafts, pizza and devotional. Here are some pictures of it. Jacoby was a three musketeer, Boaz was a cupuchin monkey and Lance and I were Abraham and Sarah from the Bible. Lance was 100 years old and I was a 90 year old pregnant woman. Everyone thougt that I looked like a pregnant Nun though!

This is Lance with Micahel Barker (The Pirate) and Shannon Monroe (Cave Man).

The Following is a video of Jacoby bobbing for donuts!

Here is a video of Boaz bobbing for donuts, it was a lot harder for him to catch his donut and bite it, especially since Michael Barker was the one holding the string and making the donut bounce all over the place.


This is a video of a more sanitary option than bobbing for apples, there were 4 gummy life savers in the bottom of each pie tin and then the life savers were covered with whipped cream, then everyone had to find the life savers only using their mouths! Very messy!

Alex's Toys

Auntie Heidi went through Alex's toys this week while he was at school and boxed up all of his starwars toys and mailed them to Jacoby and Boaz. Boy were they excited to get their cousin's toys. Especailly since they knew that Alex didnt know about it. Their favorite thing to do is to go over to Auntie Heidi's house when Alex is at school so that they can play with his toys fully un-interrupetd by bigger cousin. I think now that the video is on our blog, Alex isnt going to be too happy about it! But, Alex, you really made the boys happy, without even knowing! Tell your mom thank you for us!

Boys and Their Toys!

Do boys ever really grow up? The boys were sick this last week and we were having a lazy morning of staying in the house, so they boys all decided to get out their toys. Boaz with his Remote Control Car, Jacoby with his Electric Airplane, and Lance with his Remote Control Helecopter.
Here is how I found them all!

Projects

We have been home schooling for over a month now and we have been trying to work on fun projects each week. Grandma Simonds gave us a fun "Concoction book" that the boys like to look though and pick fun things to make. Today the boys wanted to make body paints and paint themselves all up like warriors. It was a neat paint to make because it was made with baby lotion, corn startch and food coloring. They really smell good because of the baby lotion!

I snuck up on Boaz and found him in the bathroom looking at himself in the mirror.

Last week we made a vinegar and baking soda powered rocket car. It was really fun, and it went really good!

Here is a video of it running:
