Week 2 of Lilli's visit....

The week started with official completion of the tree house, we still needed to water seal it. Well, at least what I consider the completion. Cody tends to think it needs a second floor. The kids have loved playing in it and were so excited to watch as it got closer and closer to being done.

 We went to the Pinkalicious play for the Childrens program at the Little Theatre on the Square. We then had a Pinkalicious mini party. I made pink flower bread though it turned out looking more like cartoon stegasaurus foot prints after rising and being cooked. We had turkey sandwiches out of it with pink yogurt, strawberry marshmallows, jigglers, and pink drink. While not very healthy, the girls were excited for the pink overload and sometimes you just have to break the rules. We then decorated pink cupcakes and had the girls make and decorate their own crowns. Tanner decorated and ate 1 cupcake. He however in it all somehow ate almost a whole bottle of sprinkles and then went straight to nap. It was a great time for all and had fun watching the girls have so much fun with it. The play was done very well and even kept Tanner's attention(he won't even watch tv), so it was lively enough for him. We give it two thumbs up for sure.

We "cashed" in on one of our reading prizes and got the kid's pizza kits from Papa Murphys one day for lunch. We highly encourage slave labor for misbehavior, which the girls have found isn't all that fun. They couldn't seem to get along one day to save their lives, my sanity was about toast, so they got to clean the chicken coop. We had an afternoon of stamping and making Father's Day cards.

We had a little more time on the slip n slide, which once again was hilarious. Lilli couldn't seem to stay off the grass no matter how hard she tried. We ended the week with a shopping trip to the outlets and shopping in Champaign and made it to O'Charley's for lunch. For those of you that like to rub the Chick Fil A and Joy Luck in my face, at least I get O'Charley's!
