Nice tank Bill, now you need a dive watch to keep on the bottom, just for fun! I've always thought it would be amusing to get a skeleton wrist/hand/forearm, put an inexpensive quartz dive watch around the wrist and have it at the bottom of an aquarium!

Yeah, it's easy to go all Martha Stewart (in a nice way) and throw out the ideas. But as for me actually DOING any of them? Think again! I could probably handle the sidewalk chalk, though.

If they get messy on the paint/dye projects, just throw everyone in the pool!
Ooh - sidewalk chalk - perfect. We are also doing "make your own" sundaes, and I think I'm going to let them each make a small container of homemade playdough, scented with Kool-aid.

That paper toy making site? Saving that for my kiddos on a rainy day!


Oh, and the best part - I'm going to have Chris paint their toenails cute colors.

Maybe you could invite the moms over for a pillowfight...
(take pics)

I could probably get some mileage out of that.

Mornin' Bill. Gonna be kind of a subdued day here. One of Al's friends of 30 years passed away suddenly a few days ago of a brain aneurysm. The funeral is this morning. Life sure can sneak up on you at times.
