This morning Matthew and Ryan went to Home Depot for their monthly kids projects. Ryan built a tool box. I thought he would like the hammering but he was more interested in the screws for Matthew's project. Matthew built book ends. He was excited, but after screwing in two of the eight screws he asked for my power screw driver. Pretty smart kids.
Today Matthew and Dad went to home depot to do the monthly building project. Both were so excited to see that it was a #20 home depot, Tony Stewart, NASCAR! Awesome! They had a ramp set up in the store to race them like pine wood derby cars. Matthew had to race the car all over the store. It is a Nascar Saturday as we celebrate the race in Vegas.
Today we went to the Kids Workshop at Home Depot. Matthew always enjoys hammering the nails and then coloring the wood when we get home. Today was even better than normal for Matthew because we built an "Art Caddy" and there were lots of nails to hammer. It was extra special because it came with a box of crayons!
I wonder if the projects are more fun for me than for Matthew. My sister Vickie has been taking her boys for a few years and she is always more excited than her boys. I guess it is part of our family genes.
