Summer Happenings

Well first off I guess we should tell ya'll that we're millionaries!!!! Paul FINALLY won the million on his electronic Deal or No Deal game. We screamed and jumped all around-Erik thought we were crazy. But after owning this game over 6months and NEVER getting the million we were beginning to think it was rigged. Of course the lucky case was #13.
With all this extra dough, I've hit a few garage sales and got Erik some new toys. I found a Leap Frog A,B,C game that he loves!!! And he's so good at it too! He can already point out letters when we ask him too! One part of the toy is to press a letter and hear music, this is his favorite, so we'll ask him, "Erik, where's 'Pop Goes the Wheezel?' the letter P?" and he'll push the P, he's amazing!

Speaking of letters I also got him some bath-time letters and numbers. They're foam that stick to the wall. He loves them!!

I've also been getting crafty this summer. My mom's RS made these "crayon rolls" and I joined in the fun, since I have a new sewing machine I need to get more aquainted with. I really like how it turned out even though at first I really didn't think I'd use it-cuz I mean crayons already come in a box, why make something else to store them in right?-But we use it ALL the time! Especially at church, it's great!

What a funny face. :)

Here's the link to the crayon roll instructions,

if anyone's interested. It also made a great gift for my 8yr old niece.
