Getting creative...

Now that it is cold outside and our outdoor activities are limited we have had to get creative on ways for Ryan to burn some of his boyish energy! Here are a few things we have done lately and they have been fun for us all!

Sandbox - I bought this turtle sandbox a few weeks ago at a garage sale for $5. Thought we would put it away until Spring, but David had a better idea. He figured out that it fit perfectly under his Bronco so they made a trip to Home Depot and bought several bags of sand. We put a couple of space heaters in the garage and it's been fun for hours! The clean up is a lot of work on our part, but it's worth it.

Bathtub painting - I gave this one a try for the first time this morning and it was a hit! I gave Ryan cups of washable finger paint and a paint brush and let him go to town. This time clean up easy. I wish I would have taken a picture of him right before we drained the greenish blue water and washed...every wall was covered as well as his belly!!
