Fun Learning:
I think it's time to resurrect the card game "98 " to sharpen up some addition skills around here.
And maybe a kid-easy game of Scrabble later when the tile terrorist (Yuyum) goes to bed.Note to those who may not know: Scrabble is a whole different game when our hyper-competitive teenagers aren't around! And, since Daddy is out of town for the weekend and it's just me against the 5-9 crowd, I might actually have a chance (a chance, mind you!) to win.
See, I play for the beauty of the words, not with a mind toward sabotaging my neighbor... (Ahem! You people know who you are...)
I used to love playing with paper dolls when I was little, and very often would even draw my own clothes.

We've had an interesting afternoon, Bia, doing some seamstressing on some of the paper doll dresses we decided weren't modest enough! Definitely some creative work here. You should see my five year old, who MUST have everything taped down. (She doesn't trust those darn flaps! And doesn't seem to care that it makes permanent outfits...)
