Jana's Weekend Adventures

On Saturday I had volunteered to help my roomate with a kids thing her church was having. While we were there, she had the kids do this cool little craft! They had these little things, about the size of tater tots and made of a styrofoam-ish stuff, that stuck together when you got them wet! The kids (and I) made all kinds of interesting little creations...

One of the helpers, the son of my roomate's best friend, (known as X on my blog) wanted to spend the night at our house. We said yes...
He and I were happily playing a game on the X box (Halo), when we remembered that my roomate had brought all the leftover craft stuff home with her! X grabbed the stuff, I cleaned off the table, and we set to work!!!!
See the little things in the background? That's what they looked like before we got them wet and stuck them together.

I made the little garden in front (corn inside a fence), the church in the back right corner (complete with cemetery behind it, which you can't see very well) and the trees around it (complete with apples). X made the teepees, which are WAY cool but didn't show up well in the pics.



You can also see our river, (X and I made it together) our fort (X made it), our heros (aka Indians, which X found somewhere in the roomate's house), The torch the hero is holding (fire made by me, turned into a torch by X) and the deer, which you can see roasting over my fire in this one. I also made the blood coming out of it. X made the spit to roast it on!

Altogether we just had a ton of fun, and I am DEFINATELY buying some of this craft to use some Thurday night with "my kids"!!!
