Mommy's Day vs Daddy's Day...


Mommy's Day:


Keep kids busy by trying a fun craft that was found on Ramblings of a Crazy Woman. It included 1/2 C. bubbles, 15 drops food coloring, make as many colors as you want :-) We made red, blue, green, and purple!

Then we taped our papers to the fence and a must, we put on our paint shirts!! Food coloring stains people!

Jack got busy blowing his bubbles! When they pop on the paper they leave the color behind!Time to pick out a different color to use...
Here is Hailey's finished masterpiece! She thought they looked like fireworks.
Jack had to take a picture of his. We've been letting them use our old camera to take pictures this week. They are having the best time with it! Jack with his masterpiece...notice the love of green and the leftover residue on his nose :-) Thankfully it wiped right off their faces...we just had to scrub hands for a couple days.


Daddy's Day:


No cute crafts, no paint shirts, but they did play!!




This is one of the many things they do at SWAT practice. This is a flash bomb entry. Darren was towards the back in this footage but now he is the breacher...the guy at the door with the big stick thing...I'm sure that is NOT what it is called :-)

You day is much more my speed. Bubble painting? I've not heard of that before.

I think that is what it's called, "the guy at the door with the big stick thing"... When I first saw the video and not realizing it was a video I'm thinking, "Did Darren take the kids to a haunted house?" Then I realized what was going on. I'm a little slow tonight.

The bubble thing looks super cool. One of these days when I'm high on patience I'll have to try it.

That bubble painting looks like fun! Looks like Jack is going to be a little photographer like his Mommy! Too cute!

Darren has such a cool job!

Oh to be able to do what your husband does. I'm overrun with jealousy.

Jack looks cute taking his own pic of his paper. The littlest kids are so far beyond us these days with electronics! Hmmm, so Darren works all day with a big stick thing? Wow, that's high tech!!!

I'll take your day over Darren's day anyday.

Looks like you both have awesome jobs. I want to see some of the kids pictures!
