Mother’s Day Gifts
Tuesday, May 11th, 2010Lately I have been looking into my family history and it has been so interesting. Some of my ancestors were absolutely fearless and very inspiring. So…I decided to make my mom and my mother-in-law these little pictures that represent their mothers as far back as our family history records show. I framed them and on the back of the frames I attached their full names, birth dates and death dates. Kinda fun. Mother’s Day was so fun. Hope you all had a nice one!

Tuesday, March 30th, 2010Vinegar Volcanoes
Tuesday, March 23rd, 2010My kids love doing this. You will need:
*a cookie sheet with sides (to catch the excess liquid and foam from the volcanoes)
*food coloring (if you want to color the volcanoes)
*baking soda
*vinegar
*canning jars or glasses
*teaspoon
Place glasses or canning jars on cookie sheet. Add about 1/3 cup of vinegar to each glass. Add a drop of food coloring to each glass. Then let your child spoon in the baking soda. You can add more vinegar and baking soda after each volcano settles down to make it active again.
