new school 'do

harper and beckett got some really fancy haircuts in preparation for the beginning of their school careers. quinn also prepared beckett by drawing on his face a little with a purple sharpie. it looked pretty good. if you're wondering how to remove sharpie from your skin... the answer is hand sanitizer. now you know.

bakery date

do you like these tiny friends on a casual cookie date in madison park? i do.









animal-palooza week!

make something monday: animal shirts
we decorated tshirts with animals using a bleach pen. old navy had shirts on the cheapie cheap ($5!) and i got a bleach pen at target. you never know what color the bleach will turn the shirt... bleach is weird like that, so it's kind of a fun surprise. i printed out simple cartoon animals of whatever animal the kids chose, so they could have some drawing inspiration. if your shirt is a light color you can pre-draw with a pencil and bleach pen over it. so fun! also... this was a pinterest idea. jaw-dropping news, i know. 

time to read tuesday: animal books
the library had a few bajillion options in the animal department.

we're going out wednesday: woodland park zoo
i love the zoo, but sometimes i start to feel like... "oh are we big jerks (like humans in general) for caging these wild animals and forcing them to live in confinement for our amusment?" but then i just decided... whatever. they don't know any different. maybe they love it. probably not, but i still like going.  


















that's delicious thursday: homemade animal crackers
so adorable. you just need some teeny tiny animal cookie cutters.

fun outside friday: farrel-mcwhirter farm park
it's like a free zoo with farm animals. fun.
