Birthday Party Pictures

Please be kind this was my very first attempt at making a decorated cake for the kids. They wanted a Lego Gotham city cake like in this video. Overall the twins were happy with it so I must have done a good enough job for them.

Pictures from the kids

The kids took the camera into the wild bird store and took pictures in the store. Billy, the man with no head, is a favorite of the boys. They love talking to him and telling others all about him.

New Visitor

We have a falcon in the yard. We think its a Merlin Falcon but are not 100% sure. This is truly an amazing bird. Sadly though he has chased some of our backyard birds out of our yard and has eaten a few birds.

Hand Poinsettia's

This was a cute idea and one the kids enjoyed doing. We cut the kids handprints out of green and red paper. Then we glued them to a paper plate with greens on the outside and reds on the insides. In the middle of the reds we placed a yellow circle. After we were done the kids asked to add glitter to the poinsettia's so I let them add a few touches to the flowers. The flowers are now hanging up in the front window for all to enjoy. The idea came from enchantedlearning.com.
