F~U~N Friday

We have had a great week. Doing some fabulously fun things. Our most spontaneous thing that we did though was finger painting in the tub. We were outside and got dirty and had to rinse off. To make it more exciting we used some sidewalk paint in the tub! She loved it and we washed the tub and her and had a great time.

For more fun ideas go to Letters to my Daughters!

F~U~N Friday

Fun came in many different ways this week. It came when we were not trying, it came when we did try (just for a glimpse) and it came when we least expected it.

My hubby got in on the action without even knowing it. He came home from work one day and ended up under our coffee table. They were playing and having fun. They were going "Anybody in here" in these really funny voices.

When I attempted to inject some spontaneous fun into our day I didn't think it was going to work. It was a hot day and I thought we would have a little water fun. I got my water hose and splashed Anna and her slide so that she could slide down in the cool water. It hit her and she started crying *oops! She settled down though and started splashing in the water. So we quickly discovered she doesn't want to be splashed but to splash is ok lol.

The most fun we had though was playing in the dirt, oh I mean getting our garden ready. I thought this was work and would by no means be FUN! Anna had different thoughts about it though. This kid loves to get her hands dirty. She normally hates to be dirty but ever since I let her start helping me pull weeds she has discovered the joy of getting her hands dirty. Needless to say she was in heaven digging in the dirt. She gave me and my friend Angel "dirt baths" and did a "dirt dance". She laughed and played and thought that gardening was like the greatest thing EVER!

If you would like to see more fun ideas run over to Letters to my Daughters. If you want to add your ideas that would be great too!!!

A F~U~N~tastic Day!

Shawn over at Letters to my Daughters has started a new campaign.

Here it is: The F-U-N Injection Challenge: Highlighting the fun in Motherhood.

Many of life's great mysteries is the ability for our minds to play tricks on us and, I feel this is especially easy when two toddlers are fighting over which page you should read next, or when both want to wear the one and only pair of cupcake pajamas.

Sure, motherhood is hard and we all relate to that, but we all know that there is a lot of AWESOME involved.

In honor of her fun campaign I took Anna to the beach. I know this isn't an option for everyone but it is for us even though it takes us upwards to 45 minutes to get there. It is so peaceful and fun I really don't know why I don't do this more often. Well, yeah I do it takes gas and gas is not cheap! But back to the fun part of it lol. We explored, chased birds, watched people fishing and trying to surf. We looked at algea and a jelly fish that had washed up. Most of all we laughed and ran and spent time just being happy and not worrying about all of the other stuff. You know, the dishes and the laundry and the yard work. All of the stuff that calls my name when I am at home.

Now run out and do something that makes you smile!

This and That

I missed my 200th post! I was hoping to do something profound or at least exciting lol. I guess I will have to pretend I am doing it later. I can't believe I have been blogging long enough to do 200 posts!

Anywho, in other news, we decided to stay an extra night because we are having so much fun. We are helping decorate for Christmas and all of that fun stuff. We went to see a horse for the second time this week. I thought Anna would be terrified of him but she loves him. Today she even kissed him. I was worried though cause she wasn't watching what she was doing when she was rubbing him and she about poked his eye out twice yikes. He didn't seem to mind though. He liked the smell of her. He kept trying to sniff at her lol and then he kept trying to bite my boobs! The things we endure for our children! Let me run I think I am missing out on all the fun. I hope y'all have had a wonderful holiday!
