Raquel was off of school for the past 5 days and so we took advantage and got some work done around the house along with lots of fun projects and play dates.
I finally got our room painted, it only took about a year and a half. Now I just have to spruce it up with new bedding, wall art and nightstands. Any suggestions?
The kids really were good to let me paint most of one day, so we needed to make our other free days chalked full of fun activities we have been meaning to do. First, we made cookie snow globes, then soap from a soap making kit and then lastly we did an experiment with soap and the microwave.
The girls had fun making the cookies, icing and painting the snow globes with edible paints.

Our soap experiment! First we made a hypothesis, what did we think was going to happen if we put a piece of Ivory soap in the microwave. The girls both thought it would melt. Were they right?
Here is Raquel showing off a little piece of soap before it went into the microwave.
After about 90 seconds in the microwave here is what our little piece
of soap now looks like. They couldn't believe that is what happened to their little bar of soap. The best thing is the soap is still usable, the girls just brake off a little piece to wash their hands.
That's amazing!! Who would've thought that would happen with soap? I would've guessed melting too. :) Your bedroom looks beautiful! Nice job on painting. I'm not a big help with decorating though... We don't even have a night stand. haha. Good luck!!
