Blog Backlog 4

I think this shall be the last installment for the day.  But I've made a dent in the pile of 230 some odd pics at least. :)

Melanie loves to play house.  Fortunately her brothers are quite accommodating (although Nathan tends to be busy with something like Lego if she plays house too often).  This time Daniel and Matthew are joining in her game.  She can even get Jennifer to cooperate in her house games if she plays it right. ;)

 I like to give a basket of laundry to fold and put away when the kids get into mischief.  It's an easy brainless punishment for me, 'cause there always seems to be a basket sitting there waiting on the couch.  We just have to not mind our clothes being very wrinkled, and turning up in the wrong places.

We wanted to go to Toronto Island for our annual trip with friends-but it was postponed after a very stormy morning.  To ease the disappointment I pulled out the paints.  






The kids were very good with keeping the mess to such a minimum that it was almost a painless fun time-I might even try doing it again sooner rather than later!  (After a trip to a good art store to get some more white paint...and any other colours we may need....if that ever happens...maybe when my blog is caught up...;)

Evelyn has to wait a year or two 'til she can try.  But she's looking pretty content waiting her turn!
