Frugal Fun Sidewalk Chalk

Frugal Fun - Sidewalk Chalk
Let your kids express themselves with sidewalk chalk. The chalk will wash off after the next good rain storm. Kids can draw their own art or games like hopscotch. You can buy sidewalk chalk at craft store or make your own using this recipe.


Ingredients:
1 cup Plaster of Paris, 1/2 cup of water, powdered tempera paint and something to use as a mold (such as a cardboard egg carton).
Directions:
Mix the water, Plaster of Paris and powdered tempera paint. The more tempera paint you add, the deeper the color of the chalk will be. Then pour the mixture into your mold and let dry.

Our Trip to the Zoo


Opening week at our Zoo!!
On Friday after the Girls got home I did decided last min to take the kids to the zoo. It was the last FREE day for this week! We got there at 330 and the zoo closes at 5 so we did kinda go a little fast but there will be more chances to go back, but with the temp in the Low 70's, It was great to get out of the house and let the kids run around for a while.
Peyton loved the Wolfs, he did not want to leave them lol!!! The girls loved the Monkeys!!!

Just getting Started

After checking out so many other posting from stay at home moms, I have decided to make my own site so please bare with me while I learn at how to do everything for on here.

Right now I am learning at how to save as much money as I can, I really do not want go back to work, So one way right now to make more money is that I am selling Partylite candles and I am also watching a couple of Great children.

My plan of this Site is to share the things that I do to save money, Shopping, doing thing with children and with my husband when hes home. (He works Full time, goes to school full time (online) and is also in the National gaurd).
