Matching Game -

Luke was too cute today.  He announced that he was going to make a matching game.  He cut the paper himself and made two of each identical pictures.  An ocean, the nighttime, cotton candy and a bear ("the bear was the hardest one, mommy").  Then he colored the opposite side all the same - just like a real matching game.  Then we played!!  I'm so thrilled the kids are not into video games, handheld, computer games, etc...  I'm sure eventually it will come but for now it is fun to watch Luke play and be creative.  He is always making zoos, houses, jungles, or train tracks.  You name it, he'll create it - pullies for the stairs, caves, tents, or carts for his wheelie cars. And that is just the inside.  Now that he is outside...it is a whole new host of things to explore and creations to make!

Mem Day

Happy Mem Day!!  We had a good and low key weekend.  Jay and I were able to sneak away for dinner one night.  We went to the cape one day which was fun for the kids to spend time with the cousins.  Sunday, daddy ran to our favorite restaurant in Westport, Bayside, and we met him there.  We LOVE it there.  That whole area is our favorite in the SC.  It is beautiful.  We always end up across the street on the trails to the beach.
