Tuesday Treasures


The last week, we built with a ton of Lego sets, played
many rounds of Hullabalooo and pushed a lot of little
trains around their wooden tracks.  I couldn't resist
grabbing my camera when Luke got down on his belly
to look through the little bridge...


The Paper Mama





We also got a bit crafty.  The boys made these cute 
little finger-snowmen.  (Aren't the tiny canvases the 
cutest things?)  I love how they turned out and plan to 
add cute ribbon so they can be ornaments on next 
year's playroom Christmas tree.

(I got this idea HERE.)







The snow and ice is nearly gone...




but it's still fun...




and they're already hoping for more!

Gorgeous pics, but the perspective in your first photo is wonderful!

Jim said...

Hi Dina ~~ Those boys will always like snow won't they!
My favorite today is the finger snowmen. Did you notice that kids are drawn to the carrot noses? Even our 18 month old granddaughter goes to the nose for playing and a handle.

Thank you for peeking in on my after-Christmas put up post. And for your kind comment. :)
