We do a lot of fantastic things but this post is about the simple little things that we do that are an awful lot of fun. It doesn't have to be expensive or fancy or a trip to be amazing!
One of Marcus's favorite things to do is visit Trader Joe's (yes the grocery store). He loves a lot of different things about the store, including the samples, findings wally the fish, buying flowers (normally for Great Grandma), and buys his favorite things. When we start shopping he always knows there are a few items we buy every time. He loves the Trader Joe's yogurt and he always runs over to pick packs up. I usually have to stop him or he will put 5 (packs of 6) in our cart. He loves the stuff!
Anyway, one of the fun things about Trader Joes is the changing inventory. One day this summer when we here they had a White House Cookie Kit to put together and decorate. This was a total hit and even better, I think it cost only $3.99. Here are some pictures from our decorating party!
Marcus made sure that the structure was solid!
He was also responsible for all of the decorating!
I don't think anyone is going to hire us in the future to build white house cookies but we sure had a lot of fun and Marcus was really proud of it. On a side note, every part of it tasted fairly awful so I would advice this for the fun but not the taste. The good news is that it really kept Marcus from tasking the project!
