Mike and I painted our porch this week. It looks so much nicer now that the colors match the house. While we were working on it, Kendra decided to pull weeds...what a nice surprise! That day Collin had his play tools and was "fixing" the house.
Yesterday I painted the cement, and Collin wanted to help. So, he got craft paint and freezer paper. Here is his painting.
Before....getting ready to paint the iron.
With the iron painted.
Collin went to Sunday school and Children's Church for the first time today. He said he liked it, but he was ready to go home when Sunday School was over! I took a picture of Kendra on her first day of Sunday school. I was going to post it on here, but I can't find it. Kendra graduated to a new class also. She liked it, especially since she got to bring play-doh home.
We spent the day cleaning the house and doing some chores outside. Kendra was such a big helper. She mopped my kitchen floor for me and did a great job! Who says work can't be fun? :)
I snapped this picture of the kids cuddling together before bed.
We were in JCPenney yesterday, and Collin saw these pajamas....he was so in love with them, I couldn't say no, and besides, he did need some pajamas. Then, I found out they were on sale, doesn't get any better! He has been going around acting like "Buzz Ightyear". I'll have to try to get a clip of it soon.
He also decided that make up is not just for girls....he had to try out Kendra's pink lipstick. He thought he loooked pretty. :)
Kendra came home today with a sticker that says "I'm and Official 1st Grader"...hard to believe, but true. She was nervous but excited for school this morning. She had a good day, but was a little disappointed that she didn't get 3 recesses like in Kindergarten. :) 
This is last year....when I took her picture this morning, I had a flashback of this, and how big her backpack seemed a year ago. Made me a little teary eyed.
Mike found a salamander at work yesterday and brought it home for the kids to see. We took care of it until bedtime, and then let it go. Collin called it a "sanamander".
My wild flowers are going crazy right now, so I have been taking advantage of it. It brightens my days!
