Mommy Octopus

Happy Monday! We had an interesting weekend. This was supposed to be my husband’s work weekend, but instead he took a trip to urgent care for a torn or injured distal bicep tendon. It was a ridiculous injury where my husband and I collided after we turned off the lights to go to bed and our eyes were adjusting. Crazy, huh? He’s out of work for a bit, so this should be an interesting season for us. I appreciate you shopping through my links and sharing posts as this is how I help supplement the family’s income and homeschool our crew.

Have you heard of LEGO Dots? I haven’t until today! They are a cool way to design crafty things made out of LEGOs!

Kids can stretch their LEGO Dot design and self-expression skills as they decorate the items, following the pattern suggestions on the packaging or coming up with their own, fresh look

Monday, monday. Already. It was a gorgeous weekend and we enjoyed the beautiful weather and having our windows open. On Saturday my hubby and our youngest went for a hike out at the botanical gardens. The rest of us had various things going on and then went to the Athens Laser Show. That was fun and I hope they come back again! It was great to tailgate with friends outside and watch a fun show.

Disney On Ice has kindly released fun pumpkin stencils that you can download for free to make Disney character pumpkins! They have available Moana, Mickey, Minnie, and Olaf.

We just picked up our Pumpkins at Aldi yesterday, so I think we may try to use one of these. I keep toying between Mickey and Olaf. I think both would make for cute pumpkins!

Which one if your favorite?
