Yarn Arts Extravaganza!

Xavier illustrating how long of a snake he can make when knitting for 1 hour.  WOW!

Xavier has found a new passion in life.  Finger Knitting!  He is quickly going through my stash of left over yarn and filling my house with all sorts of whimsical yarn crafts.  It's so fun to see him excited about a new hobby and working hard to get better at it every day.  I just hope my vast yarn stores last until we can go shopping at the craft store again!

Xavier is getting down to work on this year's science fair project.  He's testing to see which oil is best for popping popcorn.  It's important science. John and Diana are enjoying playtime inside boxes, because boxes are the best, of course! John is starting to have fun playdates with friends from the neighborhood.  It's so fun to find good friends who share a love in all things Paw Patrol!
