Another Fun Week: penguins and present wrapping!

 

This is the circle where we usually play when we get out of the house and can’t go to a park.

One of their favorite activities is chasing the remote control car around the circle!

Ryan and I hid a few secret presents in the advent calendar where the kids get something Christmas-y

This time Owen found a note that led him to these Hang and Hatch Ornaments!

It took almost two days, but the egg finally hatched a little penguin!  We’ve left the penguin in water because it will continue to grow for weeks!

We visited a park in downtown Alachua where Ryan works and saw their town Christmas tree!

Owen and I played pretend baseball so he could get home runs while Margot played in the dirt!

Then we went to the playground and had a blast on the Merry Go Round!

We made a trip to Hallmark and found this cool Advent ornament that tells you what’s going on in the North Pole each day you get closer to Christmas!

Owen calls this his shooting center.  In other words, he stands in the lanai and shoots the windows, while yelling “I’m in the shooting center!”

Owen wanted to get Margot a Christmas present, specifically an Aquadoodle.  So I thought he might like learning how to wrap a present!

He was really excited to do all the taping and ribbons!
