Creative Fun...

One of the great ways that we have found to be nice to one another is through this DOLLAR mailbox that we picked up at Target last weekend. Fiona carried it around the store and then came home to decorate it with the help of her siblings. It immediately became a permanent part of the kitchen counter and is used on a daily basis now.

Our first round of letters that came out of the box...from Stuart!

Myles and Fiona finally got to have some fun with the coloring toy that he received from Grandma and Granpa for Christmas. We put the large paper to color on away in the closet, and I just found it the other day. These things are a hit and are very washable!



the MASTERPIECE....

Macy and Stuart have also added to this beauty since I took these pictures.

Ashli...you are such a creative mommy! I am impressed! What an awesome idea, plus the kiddos get mail!

The biggest paper for coloring is great! My mom got us some for when the kids are over and i just tape it to the floor and let them have at it! Keeps them entertained forever!!

I love the mailbox! Cool idea! The coloring project is such a keepsake for sure! I remember my Mom putting paper on the floor and letting us go at it!! Hope all is well. Miss you a lot and think about you everyday! Hope to see you soon!!

what fun! We love the washable markers. It's harder to get them out of carpet than clothes, though!
