Ready, Aim, Shoot- Water Gun Fun

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy! -
We had plans to go down down to the free fountains but when we got down there they were not on and not turning on.  I still have to find out when they are on.  We had a great time there a few weeks ago on a sporadic moment.  :)  So I had to think quick since I had a little girl who was sad.  So we had a super fun water gun fight!  :)  Getting wet is our theme lately with the hot temps.  I was very happy a couple days prior I had purchased these 2 water guns at "Dollar Tree."  

Yep, she got a lot more wet them me.  LOL, I must have better aim!  ;)




I had fun trying to hide by a tree or even the big electrical boxes.  :)  We even did a "Western Draw" where we lined up back to back and took 3 big steps and then turned around and shot at each other.  Daddy was sweet and took pictures for us but I think I will have to buy another squirt gun for him because I am pretty sure there will be a next time.  :) 

I also filled a bucket with water so it was easy to fill them up.  :)

Looks so fun! Now I have to go get some waterguns too! hehe.
With any luck they'll be on sale since they're trying to fit in the school stuff!

So cute. With temps consistently over 100 where I am, my boys don't want to go outside at all (not at all like them!) I love your background pic of praying hands--awesome :)

Found you through the Thursday Cup of Joe Hop. I hope you'll follow me back :)

Book Description
Discover how to lead your child to Christ.
It's the most important conversation you'll ever have with your child, but that doesn't make it easy. The gospel is simple enough for little ones, but has kept theologians debating for years. So when it comes to explaining the Good News to your son or daughter, where do you start?

Toddler Rainbow Craft for St. Patricks Day

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy! -

St. Patrick's day is March 17th so its approaching quickly.  I have a few ideas on art and food projects that i want to do with the kiddos.  Hopefully I will have enough time to complete them and share them with you.  
This was a super easy one for those little hands.  I cut the stripes of colored paper but if you are working with a preschooler or school aged child then they can practice cutting.  The two toddler boys here only had to glue the pieces on their piece of paper.  EASY, but they enjoyed it!  :) 
It sure has brightened my kitchen with them hanging on the fridge!  :)  
I also talked more about the Promise God gave us with the rainbow since I know that history a whole lot better then the history of the Irish Holiday!
