Monday

On Monday...

We finally did the SAND ART craft that Grandma left for us back in October. 

    

     And we did it outside

          in 80+ heat

               at 7 o'clock in the morning

                    before Mom had any of her coffee!

Then mom gave us our allowance and we were so motivated that we agreed to do EXTRA CHORES for even more money! 

     We cleaned the kitchen floor

          and we cleaned the garage door.

 

Then we played with the PUPPY Uncle Brian gave Allison for Christmas two years ago.

     Allison named her "Flower" 

          because of the flowers on her bandana.

               And she needs new batteries

                    but we only have three...and she needs four.

                         But we played with her anyway.

We played with the MARBLE game.

     Mom would only let us have it
          after we cleaned up the entire play room.
               We did a good job cleaning up.
                    And Mom built this tower!
                         (Our Mom's the greatest!)

And then Allison opened a package from Great Aunt Julie and it had a DRESS-UP DRESS in it!

     Look at me in my new play dress!

    And I danced while Mom watched
          "So You think You Can Dance" on TV.

     And Carter danced, too.

     And I almost smiled a real smile
          (instead of a smirk)
               for a picture in my dress!

The End.
