Zoe and Emily had a half day of school today. Zoe came home exhausted. Her class spent the morning working in the garden they have at school and they played kickball outside for gym, and they ate lunch outside. All that working and playing in the fresh air wore Zoe out! It didn't keep her down for long though. 10 minutes of resting and she was ready to go back outside and play.
Zoe received moon sand for her birthday and I insisted that she wait until it is nice enough OUTSIDE to play with it. Well today was that day. It was gorgeous outside, which meant it was like an oven inside. The kids had fun playing with the moon sand and I didn't have to deal with sand all over the house. :-) I even insisted that Zoe store it in the shed from now on because she brought it back inside with a tiny bug on the bag and sand was on the bag, so out, out you go moon sand.
We started off vacation week this evening by going to the Alamo theater to see "Horton Hears a Who." I took Zoe, Emily, Eleanor, and Zach while Matt stayed home with Kate. The kids had a great time eating their popcorn and watching the movie. They thought it was funny for the most part. The bird part scared most of them, but not enough to ruin the movie. They excitedly talked about the movie on the way home and at home until they went to bed.

I've never even heard of moon sand until now. It looks pretty cool, but messy!
we too, just got some moon sand, I think Im regretting the purchase already. We only play outside with it,but it still makes such a mess, though ryan does love it
This sounds like a great start to vacation...moon sand? I have not been introduced to that yet...maybe I don't want to?
