Fun with Cups

Need an in door activity?
My kids played with Dixie cups for 2 hours last week.
They made pyramids, went bowling and built towers.

Then they put clementines on top and at the corners,

and took pictures.

Oh the simple things :)

While the girls were sleeping...

Tyson & I built this on a beautiful Midwest beach.

Complete with roads, garages for his trucks, and a moat.

Then we had a war with these, $1 and all you need is a potato, unlimited fun, toy guns.

It was a fun mommy middle (boy) child kind of afternoon.

Legos, they stretch my brain!

What can 1056 eggs get you? Legos!!
We begin saving the money, from selling our extra eggs, at the beginning of the summer. I had no idea we would 'raise' so much Lego money. We divided the money in half between the boys, they each got $44 to spend on Legos.
My oldest is a Lego whiz. He builds with ease. I new he would be willing to help build his little brothers set. But, he was gone when my 5 year old made his purchase. It was up to me to help build.
Ahhhhhh... look at all the pieces!
And we have 3 more bags to go.

Mission #1 accomplished

Ok, so we started with the easy bag.
Here we go # 2, 3 and 4

Look, we did it!

Lego's are a great toy, if your children don't have any, it is a great investment!
