This weeks treasurers, and missing 4 glass candlesticks that were getting all sparkly clean in the dishwasher and a beautiful brand new filigree shabby chic frame that was out of the shot....total $28.00. Love this farm set - barn and lots of John Deere stuff (noise activated) and animals and vehicles I know my boys will love....some pop beads (new in box, fisher price) to go with my original ones I have from when Adam was a baby....the boys like to make long strands of them to have their Monster Trucks run over them....a great set of old world bookends with globes that rotate - love these...remind me of that fantastic old globe table I saw in Palm Springs - still waiting on the price to drop on that one...also some incrediblocks that are discontinued and very collectible.
The other day our neighbors got a new appliance.....We asked the delivery team for the box and they were more than happy to give it to us. I remembered how much fun my kids used to have with old appliance boxes and I knew the boys would as well. The next time they came over, we brought it in, I made a door and windows (ok, a little crooked but a pretty stylish design don't ya think)....they boys got out their crayons and 'decorated' it....
Dylan decided to name it 'Our Kids Playhouse' and I love that....he drew a rainbow over the front door and he did a really good job!!!
The loved taking turns getting in together and ate their snack in there and of course if you look you can see Baby (Mickey) was tucked inside by Brody...
This is Brody checking out the door before it was decorated or filled with toys.....when they went home I found everything from goldfish crackers to my old cell phones they play with to Monster Trucks, Thomas the Train, flashlights and crayons.....it was entertainment for hours and it is rainy today and they are coming back over.....we will have hours of fun with this simple pleasure.
What simple pleasure is in your life?
