Workshops at Home Depot

After the race on Saturday the kids and I decided to go buy seeds for our garden at Home Depot. I'm so glad we did. Surprisingly to me, they were having their free kids workshop. (They usually only do them the first Saturday of the month and we had missed it this month. So I was pleasantly surprised to learn that management hadn't wanted to be outdone by Lowe's and is now having their workshops every 1st and 3rd Saturday of the month. YEA for us! Even better, it was a hodge-podge of crafts for the kids to make, we didn't have any where to be and so we took our time building two projects each! (If any of you have not taken advantage of this free program with your kids, your really missing out. They give you real Home Depot aprons with the kids name's on it and for each project they complete they get a certificate, that's easily thrown away, and a great pin with a picture of that project on it to put on the apron.) 

Aaron made a great little toolbox complete with tool stickers as well as a message board with cork board on one side and a dry wipe board on the other.

Liv made a cute picnic tray, that she has already utilized as a tea set holder for a new tea set that she just inherited from new neighbors down the street, and a message board as well. 

We were there for quite a while and afterwards none of us had the heart to look around for seeds. We went home for lunch and put the garden off for yet another day.

Later that afternoon we went to our friends' house to watch BYU get annihilated by Florida State in football and had a yummy dinner. Thank you Allred's 

All in all, even though Daddy was gone, a really good Saturday.
