Yesterday’s activity was so successful that I had to try it again today-actually the guys were the ones to make the connection, not me this time. Since we are snowed in, I am desperate for things to do to. The guys found a bottle of glue when we were playing downstairs(thank goodness they couldn’t open it), so I thought we could glue something on plates I had left over from our Halloween party. I couldn’t find those, but found some red cards in my craft cupboard and some alphabet letters I was going to add to their soup at lunch. So here’s what we did:

If you are not one of their grandparents and you are the first to comment below, we’ll send you one by snail mail when we finally can get our van out of the driveway and somewhere beyond. I’m currently looking up bus-routes to Starbucks. We’ve been snowed in for 3 days and would love some adventure.
Those cards are SOOOOO Cute. I hope you get out soon.
Auntie Pearl, check your mail soon!
