Randomness

I've got lots of pictures to share, so here ya go.

First, some of the girls playing in the snow last week.





Also, some of Sophie at her ballet class last week. 








And lastly, some pictures of the Valentine crayons we made for Sara's class.

First, we got some aluminum cupcake liners at Target.


Then we peeled the labels off of a bunch of crayons.  It works best if you use Crayola brand only.


We then broke the crayons into smaller pieces and covered the bottom of the cupcake liners.


Bake for about 20 minutes at 300 degrees and they should look something like this.


Allow them to cool until they are completely hardened.  When you take them out of the molds, they will look something like this.

 
I put the finished crayons into colored baggies and tied colored hearts on them. 


The hearts said, "You Color My World Valentine"
