Lady Marbles Paper and Loses Her Marbles






During a brief moment of insanity, I decided to do the boys' paper marbling project indoors because, with temperatures in the upper 90's, it was too hot on the patio.






I faled to remember that turpentine reeked quite so badly.


After our project was done, it took a regimen of open doors and windows





...fans





...a batch of bars and three loaves of bread to get the house smelling livable again.






So much for thinking the patio was too hot...

(...yeah, that's 87 degrees indoors...)












Time to bring the snowballs from January out of the freezer!






(Now if we could just find all those brain cells we lost while breathing turpentine...)

This week he finally mastered it!
