Sunday after Church, part 1

We made 6 individual servings of fake snow for play in the back yard. The kids all where so impressed as their tiny bit of flaky powder turned into a cup full of snow for throwing. The dry stuff was the same stuff that is in disposable diapers and changes to gel when wet. We got the little snow present from Jenny and Nate a couple of Christmas's ago and have been holding into it for a fun with the kids day. Sunday was the perfect timing. It starts with sodium polyacrylate. Check out this link to make your own backyard snow: http://chemistry.about.com/od/chemistryhowtoguide/ht/fakesnow.htm
After our backyard fun including snow
we brought the kids in for a short wind down period of popcorn and a movie. They watched Alice in Wonderland, the one with Johnny Depp. Then a walk to Audubon Park with my bigs and niece Zoe. Of course I trekked it through Loyola. The rest of the crew met us there. I Love that Mima is only a short walk from the park.
