It was a busy, busy Saturday – Kid’s Workshop, Birthday Party, Shopping, and a Movie, Oh My! As you can probably guess, we began the day at Kid’s Workshop at The Home Depot. Today’s project was a valentine card holder. Laura built first. I think the family sometimes gets annoyed with my shutterbug habit. 😉
John followed and he was the picture of concentration. He truly loves swinging a hammer!
After Kid’s Workshop, we did a quick swing through Target and then headed to drop Laura off at a Birthday Tea Party for her friend, Sophie.
While Laura was enjoying the birthday party, Andy and I took John for lunch at McDonald’s and then to the mall to buy an outfit for Ian and Amanda’s wedding. I was nervous about taking him shopping because it would mean that he would have to try on the clothes, but John did fantastically well! The shopping trip was successful and he now has a 4-piece dress outfit with a vest and tie. After picking up Laura from Sophie’s birthday party, I dropped the kids off at Rachel’s house so that Laura, John, and Alia could watch a movie together. Apparently, watching a movie from the confines of a box is the coolest thing ever!
The rest of Saturday was spent relaxing. The kids were in bed on time and Andy and I just relaxed. Exactly what we needed after a crazy busy Saturday!
