Little Builders

On Friday evening one of my girlfriends called and asked if me and the boys would like to go with her and her son to the "Build and Grow" at Lowes on Saturday. So Saturday morning I took Garrett and Ethan to Lowes. It was the coolest thing!! Each little builder gets their very own carpenter's apron, goggles, and a project to build. This time they could choose to make a Jewelry Box or a Valentine Mailbox. The boys both thought they were really big stuff when they had their very own hammer, nails, sand paper and blueprint of their project to build with. After they completed their project they each received a badge for their accomplishment that they will sew onto their carpenter's apron. I am so glad that Emily and Alex thought to invite us along!! This is something that Lowes does twice a month for FREE. The boys can't wait to go back on February 28th to make their own Race Car. I would highly recommend this to parents and children of all ages. Here is the link if you would like to check it out for yourself: https://www.lowesbuildandgrow.com/

  2. Can girls do it too? I see Lauren and her daddy there in the years to come if so. He is such a handy man!
