Hump Day Fun

On the boys absolute most favorite day of the week, HUMP DAY!!!, we decided to have a little fun after school.  We made pizza pockets (pizza sauce, mozzarella, and pepperonis folded up in crescent dough), and they loved that the little pizzas were so easy to eat and just their size.  Delish with apple slices on the side! 
We played a few games while our pizza pockets were baking, but after dinner was reserved for craft night!  Brown paper lunch sacks were the focus tonight, and they got to choose what type of character to make from some examples I had compiled.  After much thought (and several mind changes), Lincoln decided on a Mike-like monster and snowman.  Beau gave it as much thought as Linc (and had as many mind changes), and he finally settled on a Valentine's cat and a different snowman.  We got busy cutting and glueing and having lots of fun!  Beau was very specific when choosing the name on the Valentine heart that the cat is holding . . . it had to be Mr. Pettibone because that is Goofy's cat friend.  (I actually looked up how to correctly spell Mr. Pettibone after asking them 17 times if it was Petty Bone or Pettybone!)  I've seen a lot of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse over the last few years, but I'm not that familiar with Mr. Pettibone.  Well, I am now!  There might have been a few brownies mixed in with our crafting, but all evidence has been swept into the trash!  The boys were so happy to pose with their creations when we were all done.  Precious!
They ran off to practice their puppet show for a bit before they were ready to put on a show.  It was short and sweet!  For the most part, they had gotten super hyper and giddy so an impromptu dance party broke out!  I captured them dancing around the living room with silly squeals!   Beau was the initiator . . .
. . . and Lincoln is never one to turn down a chance to boogie! 
Daddy's not the glue-y-est kind of guy, but he loves our creations.  He also loves watching two silly boys dancing wildly, so everyone wins tonight!  Lots of giggles, yummy dinner, and dancing boys makes for a super fun Wednesday night!
