Mystery Box from Nana and Grandpa Von


We have been out sick for the last few days, actually we are still taking a sick day inside resting today but we are all feeling better and will probably be out and about tomorrow. Anyway, a few days ago we received a mystery package from Nana addressed to Chance. We had been told there was a box on it's way but none of us knew what was inside. As soon as we got the box in the house Chance asked us to open it. So, of course we did and what we found was very exciting. Inside was a new Batmobile, a lunch box and lots of cool art supplies. The first thing that caught Chance's eye was the Batmobile and he kept taking it to each of us asking us to open it while we inspected the rest of the contents of the box. Scott stepped in, freeing the Batmobile from its cardboard and plastic binding. Chance played with that Batmobile all day and even wanted to sleep with it at night but since it lights up and makes noise at the touch of a button he had to leave it on the shelf. After we let him know he could play with it in the morning he was ok with that though. There is no doubt that Chance really enjoys the Batmobile. yesterday we made some artwork with his new colored pencils and today we put the rest of the art supplies to good use making a thank you card for Nana and Grandpa Von and a Birthday card for Aunt Kristy (her birthday is 7/27). I am looking for an easy art project to use our new glue sticks, the first thing Chance did when he opened the first one was lick it. Which was funny but not really what they are meant for. Now we are enjoying the rest of our day resting and getting better. I can't wait till we all feel better, Since we have all been sick the last few days we have watched so much TV I can feel it rotting my brain. Can't wait to get back outdoors or to a store or anywhere really, hopefully tomorrow.
