Ice Chalk

Trystan and I got up and made Ice chalk this morning. It is equal parts water and cornstarch with food coloring. Trystan was very excited to try this and was really patient waiting for it to freeze. The colors don't show up great at first when writing with them. They look much brighter after they dry. Taylee was more interested in eating the ice... and Trystan just wanted to watch it melt than mixed the colors all together. They had a blast with it though. It looks like it was a huge mess but it sprayed right off with the hose and didn't stain anything. Of coarse when I turned the hose on It was Water fight time. Trystan did a great job of getting grandma and annie wet before they got in the truck to head back North. 
 Finally frozen and ready to go
 It was nice and hot this afternoon so it melted very quickly
 Taylee's Chalk Mustache
 Mommy's Girl

 The masterpiece

 These two love one another so much and are so sweet to one another 98% of the time! I love it. I hope they will always be best friends.
 Taylee used her booty to make designs with the ice chalk :)

 Taylee handed me her chalk after deciding it didn't taste very yummy.
Tomorrow we are going to use vinegar and baking soda to blow up balloons with a water bottle. Trystan is loving our "experiments" and it is so much fun to see him so excited to try different things every day. He also wants to repeat everything we have already done everyday too.
