Since MaryJane started her Christmas List on Labor Day, I have been inspired to do a List Themed Post this week, highlighting some of the things we did over the extended weekend.Little Miss Read-A-Lot – Gurly Gurl put away another dozen or so books/chapters over the weekend. She is such a good reader.
Cats, Cats, and more Cats – So…we got another Cat. How could I resist this cutie? She had snuck a ride to my work in the back of a pick-up and needed rescue. She is a sweetie and a crazy. Her name is Coraline.
Coraline – Coraline is the most recent movie by Tim Burton. It is about a gurl who visits an alternate world where everything appears to be perfect (aside from everyone having button eyes). See the trailer following this post. MaryJane loved it so much she watched it 3 times over the weekend.
Sweet Dreams – MaryJane got a Barbie cook book from the library over the weekend and this is what she choose to make. Basically you take fruit, nuts, and sweets, dip them in chocolate, cover them in nuts/sprinkles, and chill in the fridge. Mighty tasty I’m tellin ya.
Little Trip; Big Trip – What I thought was going to be a small trip to town turned into a big trip to town (as it usually does). We took Mr. Christian w/ us and had a good time (as we usually do). We hit Home Depot where she made a cool Bean Bag Toss Game, we hit the Pet Store and admired the animals, hit the Library and loaded up on books, hit B.K. for some grub, and what’s a trip to town w/o good ole’ Wal-Mart. We made a stop at the Down Town Rogers Park before heading home to play and collect sand for our final chapter of 2nd Grad Science.
Goodbye 2nd Grade – The final Lesson in Science was fun and relaxing and cool. We learned about Ocean Shorelines. Sweet. We are doing the very last of Heritage Studies…tonight. The Independence War is over, we have a government, but now all we need is a President and a Constitution. Hmmm…wonder what the 2 lessons are about. Tomorrow we say Hello to the 3rd Grade. : )
Crafty – Here is a pic of the dolls MaryJane made out of toothpicks and some Mystery Fruit from a tree down the road. Awesome.

Playtime Galore – You know us. We cherish our playtime and get as much in as humanly possible. We played a game where she was different Pokémon and I trained them by rewarding them w/ Bread, Cheese, and Pepperonis. We had the fair share of classes. We played a great game of Aladdin. We traded lots of Pokémon cards and had battles too. We played the Backyard Forest People game. Plus lots more.
