Aron and I used to attend these Home Depot free monthly kid workshops with our kids when they were little and had a blast! I am lately trying to challenge myself to do more things with Eva and Samuel that I used to do with the Bigs (Joel, Michael and Callie) when they were little. I have to remind myself that Eva and Sam are only 7 and 9 and still need fun things to do. Just because I have been there/done that doesn't mean they have. Yes, I'm 10 years older now and getting more tired, but when I see the smiles on their faces, I know that everything I do for them and with them is worth it!
This is an activity that was on our 2017 Summer Bucket List :-)

| 2007 when I was pregnant with Eva (10 years ago!). That's my dad trying to hammer my head. |
Next month is a bug house and I fully plan to take any kids who want to go. Joel already has plans, but he probably doesn't need a bug house anyway :-)
Here are some pictures from our summer bucket list 2017 escapade. They not only get a project to build but also an apron they should bring back each month and then a new pin each month for the project they create!

| Eva is on the end in purple. Eva, you were in my belly in the picture at the top of this post and little Sam, you were not even around yet! Look how Callie and Michael have grown! And Joel is gone for practically a month working at a camp and is almost 16!!!! |
 |
| Sam says Michael is the best helper ever and he always wants Michael to come along |
 |
| I was Eva's designated helper. Two ladies with a touch of ADD makes for some funny instruction-reading and building! |
 |
| My precious children, 80% of them anyway |
July 1, 2017 you can build a bug house!
