Crafty days...

Today Ira led craft time!

She picked out the activity, gathered supplies and read off instructions.



She was very serious....



I took this picture and said "you look mad with your hand on your hip!"



Then she yelled "cause I'm so excited to make another one!!!!!!" and I snapped this one :)







Emers in his "car"...



Liv helping cut up the kite paper...



Family jam band...



Then they played explorer- liv was the expedition leader with a telescope spying out hyenas. Ira was a hyena... Emers was liv's assistant.

Monday!

What a great day!

Ira challenged liv to a game while I may lunch.






Emers loooooves bubbles....






There was painting....






Ira read me a couple books. There is nothin cooler than your baby reading to you. I mean, the baby that's about to turn 6!






We walked to the park when Jared got home...

Emers and his love of flowers.... Flowers and ducks. Those are the two thugs that he gets the most excited about. As we walk along the water he makes this quacking noise. So cute...




















Liv the spinning ballerina....






Park...



























I think they love each other...













Then we came home and Ira worked 5 pages of "explode the code". She is really amped up to learn to read to play scrabble with me on the iPad. Or words with friends with her aunt in Vegas.

Redwoods and trains and games....

We went to hike in some redwoods....

Emers was too excited.



Can you tell we miss sunny Arizona?!



Train! We took a train ride up through the redwoods to bear mountain. I LOVED the open air ride. Well, minus the spider that fell on me.



Liv did not Like the whistle! It was loud! Terrified Emers too!



Hilarious picture.
Ira- always smiling.
Liv- covering ears
Me- always with sun in my eyes and me making a face.











Ira definitely enjoyed herself...







Liv got a little antsy towards the end- she was ready to RUN!







Then we went home, had a snack, facetimed with our new newborn nephew and started GAME NIGHT!





Ira so amused with the fact that she is winning (and not because we werent trying).
