Summer 2013 Bucket List

Here is our Summer 2013 Bucket List which my 5 yr daughter informed me really is a Summer Break List...Her main goal is to PLAY & SWIM every day with her friends, but we do hope to add in these activities.

Ocean Themed Calendar pieces

Here are some Ocean themes calendar pieces.  Email me or leave a comments and I can send you my publisher file (editable) or jpg file. Years included go to 2017 on file or jpg. I do have an extra page of pics without numbers because I like to be able to place them in our wall calendar with no gap in consistency of pic order (what can i say I'm OCD!)

I am Content, We Choose Virtues, writing practice

We are working on Naters' writing this summer.  It is weak and she in entering the first grade.  She did well in Kindergarten overall for the year, but seemed to loose focus the last grading period.  So we are going to continue to do school work in the summer and the reading program through the school.  Our goal this week is to have 30 minutes of "school time" a day except when we are having an outing or will be out of town.

The are handwriting worksheets I made through Handwritingworksheets.com.  Our school district teachs D'Nealian handwriting but so can also do print or cursive there.  We are starting the week with We Choose Virtues, I am Content.

Strawberry Shortcake Calendar pieces

I let Naters pick the themes for our Summer Calendar pieces. For July she picked Strawberry Shortcake. Email me or leave a comments and I can send you my publisher file (editable) or jpg file. Years included go to 2017 on file or jpg. I do have an extra page of pics without numbers because I like to be able to place them in our wall calendar with no gap in consistency of pic order (what can i say I'm OCD!)

Lalaloopsy Calendar pieces

I let Naters pick the themes for our Summer Calendar pieces.  For June she picked Lalaloopsy.  I chose the pics of the dolls she either has or wants.  email me or leave a comments and I can send you my publisher file (editable) or jpg file.  Years included go to 2017 on file or jpg.  I do have an extra page of pics without numbers because I like to be able to place them in our wall calendar with no gap in consistency of pic order (what can i say I'm OCD!)

Mommy crafts with Krylon looking glass paint

I bought two glass sugar bowls at my local Goodwill Industries for just dollars and i purchased my can of Krylon Looking Glass spray paint at Hobby Lobby (with a 40% off coupon, of course!) very happy with how these turned out.  They are going to store my makeup remover pads and qtips in the bathroom!

Wine and Canvas

I signed up for a Wine and Canvas class  here in Cleveland at Chammps in Crocker Park.  We painted this painting.  I'm pleased with how the painting came out.  I did finish the painting with a light coat of silver spray paint just to make it a little washed out.  over all very pleased with the effect and i have it hanging in one of our bathrooms.

I do not drink(wine, drinks, food optional), but the wine & canvas event was very fun!  I would suggest getting there about an hour before hand if you want to eat before you start painting.  I didn't like the idea of eating while painting.
Just my opinion!
Thanks for looking!

turned my little girl into an elf

I saw on pinterest about making your child into an elf, so that it was I did with a picture of my daughter.  I will show you a picture of her as an elf, and I also have a template for the elf accesories (hat, mittens, boots, etc) for you.  I used, of course, two mittens and two booties (just flipped one side around.  I did cut these out of cardstock just so they'd be sturdier.  I cropped a picture of her and printed it out as an 8x10, then cut out her face & neck.  The body is an 8-1/2x11 piece of cardstock with corners rounded.

Shatterproof ornament for classroom activity

I'm doing two projects for Nater's Kindergarten Christmas party.  The first one is a thumbprint reindeer ornament.  I bought some silver & gold shatterproof ornments at Hobby Lobby for 50% off, a brown Staz-on ink pad, red, brown & black sharpie markers, and red and green ribbon to make these.  I think the kids will enjoy them.  Here is the sample we made at home today
