I did start off with our regular basic chores: everyone dressed, beds made, rooms picked up, pets fed, personal chores done, each child has a few areas to clean etc so we weren't going to get behind...
then i made a nice lunch of home made whole wheat tortillas and chroizo and eggs for my husband whom i knew was going to be there soon, then we went to his mothers, the children played outside while I painted her living room. It took a whole three hours of my day but the children were behaving great so I finished the job and David went back to work at 1, he only had a lunch break. Then I took the children home at 3pm.
We stopped by the park right next to my house. It really was dark and cloudy and starting to threaten to rain. but I thought " summer is almost over i better squeeze out every last day i can outside" so i ran laps arround our tiny play ground and they played their heart out for like 20 mins. then it really started to rain so we ran!!! LOL it was great I love REALLY playing with them like that. It makes my heart feel so so good...
The fun begings: I helped Alex, Isaiah, and Marcu make homemade paintbrushed out of horses hair, thread and sticks out of our back yard. My sister just trimmed all the horses "bridal path" an inch or two between their ears and gave the boys the hair to take home for this very idea. Then we got out the paint and paper and they each tried out their very own brush. It was wonderful.
then they got out blocks AND tinkertoys, and they thought that was great making a huge mess, because we dont get to do that very often, we try to keep the toys and mess in the buckets and just gently build little projects.. but they made a tornade trail LOL. as long as we got it picked back up before David got home, nobody knew the difference....all in all a fun fun day...
