Random Pieces of Fun

We got this idea out of Family Fun Magazine, too...{i told you i love that magazine!}
I wrote capital letters and lowercase letters randomly on squares in our backyard. We played a few different games with them, and it was so fun!
-I picked a letter and I ran to it, and Max had to find the matching letter
-Max picked the letter...and I had to find the matching one (there is a difference!)
-We played hopscotch and had to say the letter as we jumped on each square.
-We played hopscotch and when we hit each letter we had to make the sound...that was funny, and Max was awesome at it!
I'm sure there are more fun things to do with it, but when we only focus on one thing for 4.7 minutes, that's all we got in!
AND, here is a little ragamuffin girl playing with what the string fairy left after nap this afternoon, but what I'm so excited about is that...Ivy finally fits into her 'Chucks' we got her in TX in August! woo hoo!

Aut -- did you ever get my e-mail address? I thought I passed it along but now can't remember -- here it is again just in case: ivylarsen @ gmail

LOVE your "k" easter pic! Do you create those headers in Illustrator or Photoshop or what? I need to figure out how to better do that.
