Yay, School is Out for Two Weeks!!!

I couldn't be more thrilled. At the end of summer I'm counting down the days till school starts BUT during the school year I look forward to any day that Eva has off!
I didn't get a picture of Eva on her last day of this year but I did get a picture of Ellie:

Isn't she adorable?! She's all smiles in her cute little outfit and reindeer horns.

Today was the first day we did something "fun" all though technically it's only the second day "off" of school...Monday we did errands and hung around the house. Today we did crafts.

 Elle and Eva working on their separate crafts. I picked out an easy gingerbread man...whom Elle promptly turned in to a gingerbread girl. I knew she'd get bored quickly so I also had lots of snowflake stickers for her to peel and stick. She loved it...she said it was the best day ever...it doesn't take much to impress this child. I'm afraid her head might explode on Christmas morning.

 Eva on the other hand is getting much older and wiser so I picked out a more complicated craft.

A "snow globe." The only instructions were to look at the picture and use your imagination.

Perfect for Eva. The only thing I did was set up the snowballs that were inside...because she let me!

 She was so proud, she walked around with it for at least a half hour. Right after she was done she said she wanted to wait for daddy to get home so she could show him...I told her daddy wasn't going to be home for at least 2 hours! She eventually set it down.

 Here's Elle's finished gingerbread girl...complete with extra embellishments a la Elle.

And Elle with no pants on...this child hardly ever wears pants at home.

There you have day one of fun in our two weeks out of school! Jeremy came home with pizza and the girls were thrilled...me too!! It was a great surprise!
