mom, we're bored

a lazy saturday morning.

the boys were using up their allotted wii time

and i was catching up on my favorite blogs.

i am so glad that i did.

late saturday afternoon i heard those three little words...

mom, we're bored!

and i knew exactly what to do!

i copied kasey buick! 

 i had read her blog saturday morning

and saw that she had painted a wall dark for her children.

and then let them draw all over it!

remember this sealskin colored wall i painted last fall?

nope, it isn't chalk board paint.

it is just a dark, flat paint.

and yes, it wipes right off with an eraser or damp cloth.

so i jumped in too,

i didn't want to miss any of the fun.

and we ended up going a wee bit crazy.

we covered most of the wall.

but it kept us busy, the boys thought it was ultra cool,

it was a fun activity for a cold day

and

i am now having second thoughts on repainting this wall back to cream.

thank you kasey for such a fun idea!

what do you do when your kids are bored? 

leave me a comment, i'd love to hear!
