My mom and sisters came over to hang out with us for a while. Mom surprised us with Whataburger for lunch (she knows us...well, me... too well!) and Derek proceeded to tell Nana all about Bigfoot: what he looks like, sounds like and the reindeer he hunts to build his sleigh. He doesn't eat the deer, he just uses them to build his sleigh. What pulls the sleigh, you ask? Dragons. Uh-huh. After lunch, we pulled out Clara's mobile so we could tell Clara that Aunt Kelly, Amy, Val and Nana helped make her mobile. While Clara was passed around between people, we measured, cut and strung fishing line with crystals. Bryce wandered over to reach up and grab crystals and Amy started saying, "Wee Woo! Wee Woo!" really loudly to try to distract him. I got a great picture but she's forbidden me from putting it on the blog, so it will have to make the yearbook edition. :) After we strung all the crystals we wanted onto the fishing line (most had three crystals at varying lenghts along the string), we then tied these lengths of fishing line to a wire wreath that I hung in the garage. I'll hot glue flowers on it and then we'll hang it in Clara's room! Thanks to Nana, Aunt Kelly, Aunt Amy, Aunt Val, Rob and Mitchell for working on the mobile. It's going to look awesome!
Nana recorded some of Derek's Bigfoot stories. This kid...
Aunt Bella gets some Clara time
Stringing crystals is intense...
...and can even make you a little crazy. :)
Concentration
Aunt Val gets some Clara time, too
