Found this cute idea before we moved, and today we are going to make them. They are called hot rocks, and we certainly have enough of those around here!! :) Have your children find some rocks outside. Smooth and flat one's work best. Heat them in the oven at 350 for 15 minutes. Put the rocks on some newspaper (we did it outside), and give them some crayons with the paper peeled off. Crayons melt as they touch the rocks...and voila! A super-cute rock with all kinds of fun colors. Excellent way to use up all those crayons that seem to aquire at warp speed. The rocks are hot, so be careful with little hands.Tuesday, June 22, 2010
Hot Rocks

Mom of three super fun and super cool children (Caleb, Grace, Madeline) and wife to one super cool dude - Andrew. Just living life and trying to do the best we can to mold these little sprouts into who God designed them to be. And trying to be "IN" the moments with them rather than looking back and wishing we had spent more time together as a family. And...to be content. Content with where I am in life as a wife and mom. Content with the circumstances God brings into our lives. Life moves by at warp speed, and I want to be present for it. (Jer. 29:11)
