Build and Grow

We took Shane and Zealand to the Lowe;s build and grow workshop this morning to build his Ghoul bus, he LOVED it! He got a little hammer and everything to put it all together. They handed out patches for each project to put on his very own apron and a set of little goggles! He ended up making the Ghoul bus, a Firetruck and an Ice Cream truck! Then he got to decorate them with stickers and he has been playing with them all morning! I was actually surprised at the turn out for the event, when we got there the room was packed and you could hear the pounding of all the little hammers from down the hallway. We managed to get seats and Shane and daddy set to work! But still people steadily trickled in over the course of an hour, this is definitely a pre-register event!

I walked around with Z for a little bit while they were building because he was missing his nap and was grumpy. Found some storage shelves to put in our mud room to put all our bulk shopping items on, daddy is out there putting it together right now then I have to go help organize. On our way home we stopped by Dunkin Donuts and I got myself a Pumpkin Latte....best time of year for coffee drinks that is for sure!
