The Finished Tees!

 They wore the finished products on July 5th
 because we wore our Pro-Life Tees on the 4th!
(for the parade)



Kids Pro-Life Club Tees

The tee idea was found 



 This one turned out great!  
I want to make some more of these!
Instructions HERE

(I have what I did in the comments)
 "Let me close my mouth and smile"
(That's for you Christine, the kids say it all the time just for you)

4th of July Fun!

 First up, my 4th of July icy drink
(Sugar free by the way)

Frozen Strawberries
Diet 7-up
1-2 packets Sweet-N-Low if you want it sweeter

Blend in blender!

That's it!
I made this up when I was 18
(I am the original maker upper of this recipe)
 (old picture from years past)
 I found this picture somewhere on the internet, isn't it cute?
I have 4 girls
Do you think ANY ONE of them will let me do this to their hair?
(nope)
 Onto easy crafts
Now, remember if I'm showing it, it's easy.
You know that, right?

(Idea found HERE)
 You have straws and rubber bands, don't you?
Some red and blue paint

 Instant fun!!
OK, some turned out better than others

 Yes, she's still only 4 and yes, she has now lost her top 2 teeth!!
(last weekend!)
 Now onto easy finger painted flags
(found HERE)
This particular one looks like the power is coming out of her fingers
(I think that is what she intended, til I told her to add another stripe)
 What's a stripe?
 Oh, those lines I covered up....
 T-Shirts!!
We did Tees this year!
I got this idea 
 They were really really really easy, promise!

Just remember to put something inside your tees so the paint doesn't bleed through to the back
(I use old plastic placemats)


 Such a cute and fun idea!
The website showed using stencils for other seasons too
I think we will do pumpkins for Halloween and Christmas trees for Christmas!!
 But then, people will wonder why my kids are wearing dotty shirts all the time.

We also made a Captain America tie dye shirt for my oldest son
and now Tom wants one!
It turned out AWESOME!

(See how HERE)

I'll show the finished products another day
after I catch my
very busy 2 year old....oh, my it's been a busy busy summer so far....
We'll be at the parade tomorrow, 
if you are local, look for my unicyclist!!
(this was last week's parade)
And some of my other kiddos will be walking with the Pro-Life Kids Club

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!!

Strawberry Slushies

This is a good day for
an original made up recipe by me, when I was 18!
(the heat index is 100+ today)

Frozen Strawberries
Diet 7-up
Sweet-n-Low

Put in the blender, and drink in the shade!
*This counts as 1 (!) Weight Watcher point, if you are counting!

Making a Comeback!

 Wow! So, it's been a few years since I've been on this old blog! I have some updates to work on but thought I'd start today! Ab...
