day 7 of {love}

"I love you 'sew' much"

Not everything can always go as planned...you have to be flexible!  In today's case the craft didn't quite go as planned, but we still came out with a fun activity in the end.

Here's what they got in their mailboxes...

and here is what was supposed to be created...

Well when Avery and I sat down to work on this we both couldn't really figure out how to get it to look good {I think the problem is that we we using normal wire that allows the yarn to slide around}.

{That's as far as we got}

So on to plan B.  We just used the yarn to make pom poms.  {Avery was the only one that wanted to help me with this today.}

We then called our pom poms snow balls and had a snow ball fight!

No it wasn't really Valentine related at this point, but still fun!

Some other pictures from the day...

Sledding down our giant hills of snow!

Running off some energy!!!

And lots more playtime inside during another day off school.

Finally, falling asleep watching the opening ceremonies of the Winter Olympics.
