Typical Thursday Night

Running off the bus back into home! Jude and Petra devoured a snack of apples and caramel dip. Sat around the dining room table talking about school activities and dumping all contents of book bags onto the table. Read a couple books (Ironman, Ariel story) to keep kids calm while snacking and getting ready for Little Dragons. Off to our happy place (Kang's Black Belt) for Jude to attend lil dragons.


After dinner they kids played so preciously in the mud room. Petra put Tristan in an old bottom of a guitar box and pretended it was a boat. He was shirtless so she began to cover him with scotch tape to "protect his skin."  They also put all kind of "friends" in the boat.
