Weeks 47 & 48: The current fun

This is the time of year when birthdays and holidays begin to collide...and it seems ridiculously busy. Trying to simplify has helped, but I would still rather hibernate until spring than do more shopping or add one more event to the calendar. This is how we had fun the past couple of weeks:

Played Wii U. We decided to give our one big family gift to them a little early.

Played well together most of the time over Thanksgiving break.

Painted.

And made funny noises apparently.

 

Zach broke something and Gabe drew a picture to place the blame!

 

Went to Target to find more stuff they want.

Went to the library.

Ate at least one item of the Thanksgiving lunch we made.

Celebrated Zach's birthday with a Wimpy Kid cake and a Legends of Chima Lego set.

Went to Ohio. Spent time showing their favorite games.

Made melted crayons.

Talked camera/computer stuff. Jen upgraded to the model I have.

Took the kids to a new indoor play area. They had a blast.

More hanging out and talking. It was a good weekend for that. Thanks Frank!

Had wonderful playtime with our friends!
