It’s cold and raining outside today, so this afternoon we kept busy inside instead. We baked peanut butter cookies (YUM!), and made crafts from left over paper bags from Eve’s birthday party, and started a top-secret craft project that I’ve been working on (if you count “thinking about” as working) for about a year now. What’s slower than molasses in January? Me with craft projects! <\/p>\n

\"eve\"<\/a>

Eve made a "subway" for her new otter. I think that was the final idea. It went through many changes as she added to it. <\/p><\/div>\n

\"lex<\/a>

Lex made a "periscope mask" by attaching an empty butter box to a paper bag.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"lex<\/a>

He can see through the box, kind of.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"cookies\"<\/a>

I made some "sustaining food" to get us through these dark and crafty days.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"painting\"<\/a>

The start of our top-secret project. Eve loves painting. She'd do it all day if I let her. :)<\/p><\/div>\n

\"lex<\/a>

The mask gets some decorative details.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"lex<\/a>

All done. Until tomorrow anyway.<\/p><\/div>\n
