    Your kids always look happy. That is a great project for sure.

    Thanks for sharing the balloon release about the temple experience. That sounds incredible. That really must have been a beautiful site to see it rise just above Moroni. Really neat. I can't wait to see more pictures today of the Saturday events :) Have a great unplugged week.

    That is a fun project. I tried something like this with the boys before. I glued yarn around the outside so it had different prints to it.

    Great idea! We've only seen people paint with the circle end...not with the long sides!

    What a great idea! We've painted with toilet paper rolls using the end to make circles before, but for some reason I didn't think of just rolling the paint with the tube! We'll have to try it next time.

    I saw that on Magic & Mayhem and really wanted to try it, but never got around to it. Looks really fun!

    Great idea! I had been thinking of trying something like that for this week's project, but couldn't work out the logistics of it. Now I know how to do it! Thanks!

    This is a great idea and so adaptable to different ages! Maybe next weeks theme can be "rolling" and then I don't have wrack my brain pretending to be creative! :)
