Sleeping Bag Movie Night
Tonight, I finished making a My Little Pony blanket for Kendall! I think she liked it a lot. My friend Jennie came over, and helped the kids make a blanket fort to play in! They entertained us playing hockey, playing Just Dance, and watching My Little Pony (they really loved the “Babs Seed” episode, and we all learned a little about how to deal with a bully). We decided to watch a movie together–“Wreck-It Ralph”! The kids brought out their sleeping bags and...

Woo! Vacation week. Brian doesn’t have camp this week, Brandon and I have the week off, and we’re heading to the beach for July 4th. But, Kendall still had school today, and we knew she wouldn’t want to miss the Kinder Kixx soccer event! So we decided to do something special with Brian, and took him to the IMAX theater at Marbles to see the Island of Lemurs movie. I’d been wanting to see this one for awhile, so I was really glad to go. Brian doesn’t like 3D...

Today the kids surprised me while I was getting ready with a cute bowl of stuffed animal friends! Aww.. We had a nice relaxing breakfast on the porch, with some mini breakfast sticky buns from Williams-Sonoma. Yum!

I am pretty sure the dragons have moved in to stay–in our hearts!...

Just another lazy Saturday for the Perkins clan–oh, no wait, we don’t have those. 🙂 It was the crazy-busy kind of Saturday that we usually have! We started things off bright and early with a Lego Movie-themed Lego meeting. Next up, a Lowe’s Build and Grow where Brian built a cool How To Train Your Dragon 2 Sheep Launcher game! He thinks this is awesome, and really, it works way better than you’d think! After that, we met up to head over to Goddard School for their...
Read MoreBackyard Fun!
We had a pretty fun Saturday today! This morning, Kendall and I played with her new Duplo boat while Brian was at swimming lessons. She was so cute, getting really excited about the boats and especially the red bunny and yellow bear that came with them! Nana came by and played with the kids for awhile, and they did some artwork together. When they played downstairs, Kendall discovered the take-apart SUV and power drill, and now she’s really into that! She also took apart the...
