Have I ever mentioned how much I love my neighbors where we are living right now? If not, I really should have by now. I have the coolest neighbors in my apartment complex. They are very nice ladies, and all have at least one kid, so we all sit and talk out in the back yard while the kids play together. Sometimes we have girls' nights and sometimes someone plans an extra fun activity and invites everyone to join in. Yesterday the activity was to tie-dye patriotic shirts for the 4th of July. I'd never done this before, but I thought it was a lot of fun.
I was originally planning to dip the shirts in red and blue, but then while I was holding them in the red, one slipped and fell in, so I decided to drop the other one in too and just do red shirts. The patterns turned out awesome, but when I washed the shirts they turned out to be just a tiny bit pink. The shirts are still darling though, and next time I do tie-dye I'll have a much better idea of what I'm doing and I'll be able to make even more awesome shirts. :)
One of my awesome neighbors, Esther, is moving. :( But I mentioned in passing that I wanted to buy a wagon for the boys for Christmas, and she was like, why don't you just buy ours, we are trying to get rid of it. I'll sell it to you for $5. I couldn't pass up such a sweet deal. So for only $5 this two seater Radio Flyer with cool opening door is all mine! Lincoln loves it and insists that it be parked in his room at night while he's sleeping.
