Visitors for the day

Yesterday, my friend Heather needed a sitter, so Nadine, Rowan and I made it a play date. We picked up Aiden and Lucius, grabbed some Mickey D's and headed for the park for a picnic. Afterwards, we all came back to our house to play outside together. Nadine and Rowan really loved having other kids to play with for the day and shared wonderfully! Rowan was in heaven having two other boys around to play cars, ride the tractor and climb up high on the playset.

When Heather was done with her running, she came over to pick up the boys and we got a chance to visit for an hour or so, while the kids all played outside. I also printed out some of the pics I took of Aiden & Lucius and made Heather a little "Fall Fun Lunchbag Scrapbook." She loved it. Here's the directions:

Take two brown or white paper lunch bags. Either works. Put them together and fold them in half, top to bottom. Then staple them on the middle seam. You now have a minature scrapbook and the best part is - it's dirt cheap. Then you pick out your pictures and cut them to fit. I just took colored papers for backgrounds, glued the pics to those and then glued them to each page of the lunchbag scrapbook. I also used some stickers for embelishments. I made the cover say "Fall Fun". I printed it on a piece of paper with leaf clipart and pasted it on to the cover.

It turned out really cute and it took about 10-15 minutes to do! And the better news is that your kids can do it! It's that simple!
