Slacker!!! *EDITED*

Can you believe that Alex and Makayla were here yesterday? The kids made ice cube paintings and homemade cookies. Really, it happened. I mean it. Alas, I forgot to take pictures. I'm a loser!

*edited* I was waiting for someone to ask. Ice Cube Paining. YOu make colored ice cubes using food coloring and water. Freeze them in an ice tray with some sort of stick in them (to make holding them easier). Rub them on paper and you have a wonderful art project. We found that thick sketch pad paper works well for application. We also used neon food coloring which made the colors very vivid once they dried. All I'm saying is, it kept Alex busy for 30+ minutes. That's saying something.

You'll have to explain ice cube painting. This is a new concept for me.
