Swamp cooler project

Jon and Kaylee are always tinkering with something out in the garage. They decided that they would build a swamp cooler for their work space. Because it’s like living in an oven here.

Building was a bit problematic. IMG_8696

BUT they think they know how to fix their issues.IMG_8699 IMG_8700Kaylee was on camera duty. 😉

DIY lotion

IMG_7475When your kiddos have such bad eczema that even the special lotion burns you just make your own. Why is there alcohol in lotion?

They LOVE helping me whip up new batches for their body butter. It’s super duper easy peasy and also fun. This afternoon in less that 30 minutes with clean up we made six tubs of body butter and 50 tubes of chapstick.

We will go through the body butter in about a month, but the chapstick will last over a year even with me giving away half of it.
