Calling all cars...

So these past few days we've been playing and having fun. We've gone swimming, tubing and lots of using our imaginations. We built a ramp for cars out of a leftover piece of wood, followed by piling up all of Buddy's books ( which really had my cleaning compulsion going into some serious overdrive). Buddy wanted to demonstrate how ramps work....
If you can't get your ramp to work just right sometimes it will look like this...

So after we did some ramp building we decided to do some creative drawing. We started with drawing cowboys, but instead of adding clothes, I was told that it was really hot in Texas and that the cowboys should be naked. So we drew our naked cowboys, but they were missing something? Hmmm, thank goodness Buddy filled in the missing pieces, don't worry I didn't add the graphic pictures of the cowboy peeing on the red ants, that would have been crass!
On Saturday we went Tubing at the Olympic park. It was lots of fun, we made a family pact that when Buddy turns 18 we're all going to go down the bobsled run. Buddy is getting some practice in before then...

First we had to walk up the hill, we all took turns getting pulled in the tubes, Buddy was a little slow pulling us, and people kept staring at us, but very relaxing as you can see from his turn...




Of course no day of tubing could be complete without a nice cup of hot cocoa...

Or showing off our fancy ski moves....(It is weird we're all wearing the same outfit, team uniforms I'm thinking). I don't want to brag, but it appears I'm so good that I'm playing the harmonica on my way down!



All in all a bunch of super fantastic days, tomorrow dad is leaving and we'll be entertaining ourselves again, next time anatomically correct animals?...
