Little Builders

This past Saturday, before we had a little run in with that family, we met a friend and her son at Home Depot.  Apparently on every first Saturday of the month Home Depot has a free kids' workshop where the kids get to do a little project.  They each get their own Home Depot apron, and a pin with a picture of whatever project they did.  After their first time they keep their apron and each time they come they get a new pin with a picture of whatever project they did.  It's really cool, and totally free.  My boys love tools and building, so I was excited to take them.  Of course, Jodie and I had a bit of a hard time deciphering the instructions, so Mason had to tell us what to do.  All in all, we had a great time.  Our friend took pictures of the building with her phone, even after her son smashed her thumb with a hammer!  So thanks to her for the record of our fun morning (and I hope your thumb is feeling better : ) ):

Figuring out the directions...

Jodie and Connor put the finishing touches on...

I'm actually really afraid of getting my thumb hit here...

By the way, the project was a tool shed piggy bank.  It turned out really cute!  Also, I'm linking up with iPhone Photo Phun today.
