Bouncing in the Castle

On top of Mt. Jin

Jin and Santa

Jin had his holiday program at school last weekend. Most of the kids cried throughout the jingle-belling and itsy-bitsy-spidering. I was so proud and happy to see him up there. Jin hunkered down and got it over with. Just as he's doing here on Santa's lap. Santa was giving away bubbles and candy canes to all the kids that sat on his lap, and Jin LOVES bubbles, so he did it. Isn't he adorable?

It's a trap!

We went to Edinborough Park in Edina this past weekend with the Lynns and had a ball with the various toys and whatnot. The open room with balls and chairs on wheels and a bouncy castle was the big hit; as you can see, Jin ran his little butt off. Here everyone is trying to push Dad (aka ol' Lead Guts) around on the wheelie chairs.

Halloween

One highlight: the house at the end of the block didn't have any candy, so they gave him two bananas.

Dad, the sun's in my eyes

But I have a solution.

Anyone Have a Couple Extra Hours in the Day?

I used to be kinda crafty. I used to go to yoga regularly. Now I watch Netflix in a tired fog, while I snooze and feel guilty about all the other cool things I could be doing. This has got to stop. Making things always makes me feel good, so I'm going to try to sneak in a quick project here and there to see if that leads to bigger things... Here are a few I might try out. Soon.

You could buy this one here on etsy.

You could buy something like this here, also on etsy.
Man oh man, I also think Jin needs me to make him one of these. He LOVES to help me in the kitchen and he played with the cutie one at Creative Kids Stuff for about an hour before they asked us to stop licking theirs if we weren't willing to shell out nine zillion dollars.

Where's that moon?

Too cloudy.

Kicking it old school style...

Excited for Halloween
