That's an old margarine bucket on her head....

Mighty Machines!

Today was Public Works Day at City Hall. The rest of these pictures are probably self-explanatory!

Liam finally gets into a real garbage truck. Bliss!



This one's a zamboni...


Whoever operates this digger next is going to have fun re-setting all the buttons!

J-E-L-L-O

She got a little Jell-O on her clothes, so obviously she had to remove them before finishing her dessert. As for the bus....well, I can't explain that.

The Carpenters

Could they be any prouder of their handiwork?

Too Easy

I was going to call this one "Peas In A Pod" but that would be kind of like taking the day off, huh?
I'm not really one to take veggies over chocolate, but when it comes to English Peas I can make a n exception. I spied them at the market yesterday and just about tripped over the kids and a pallet of apples to get some in our cart! I'm so glad the kids enjoy them as much as I do...together we polished off a 2 1/2 lb bag in one afternoon. (Yes, it was a rather tooty evening).



If you're wondering what odd get-up Liam is wearing today, that's a dog costume and a pair of play doctor scrubs around his neck. We were playing "Dog Groomer" and he insisted that the job wasn't complete until a kerchief was tied around his neck. And so.....scrub pants.

True Super Heroes Never Wear Pants

Tights, at best. I'm pretty sure that's Chapter I in the Super Hero Guide Book.
Chapter 2: Choosing An Unexpected Secret Weapon. Liam has chosen paper towel roll "lasers". Sarah has a magic hairbrush. She'll whip you up a new 'do in record time....


Rescue Team

These two staged an elaborate Search & Rescue operation in the living room this morning. They turned the couch cushions into a fire pole (or slide, if you want to get technical) and a skipping rope into a hose. Here they are getting their "hero photo" taken for the newspaper....
