Playing with Beads!!

So over on Seven-Thirty-Three, she's running this great little weekly craft share!  We had been planning on doing some Christmas Bead Crafts today anyway, so I thought "hey cool, I'll join in!"   So, usually I only share our craft stuff on our Homeschool Blog, but I thought this would be fun to share over here too.

Our Day of BEADS!

So - awhile ago when I was out Christmas shopping, while my mom was here, we got this big box of bead crafts that we thought the kids might get a kick out of doing.  So I got them to sit down and do some crafts today.  They had fun.   Here are some of our photos ...  some are my artsy fartsy style, some are just the kids showing off...  but here we go...

Nathan right after he grabbed the hot part of the glue gun, after a lot of hugs and kisses, a cold compress, and tons of tears, he was okay...
