Jello Watermelon

Yikes! It has been awhile since I have posted. I always feel like I am scrambling at this time of year getting organized for back to school and still trying to cram in all of the summer activities that we didn’t get around to!

The boys and I finally made our jello watermelon that we had been talking about for the last month. (Well, actually this was our second attempt as our first batch ended up as a big jello blob.)

Here is our watermelon:

It is a really quick and easy treat that the kids loved! Here’s all you need to do:

Do you like Matthew’s blue and red hair? Yes, it was back to school hair cuts today. Matthew LOVES getting his hair done and lives for the coloured gel. He was quite funny trying to arrange his pillow tonight so he wouldn’t ruin his hair! Connor, on the other hand, totally HATES getting his hair cut and it is quite the embarrassing experience for me. I basically have to drag him to the chair kicking and screaming. Then I get to sit with him in a straight jacket hold while he yells “LET ME GO!!”. The hairdresser is saying how cute and sweet he is (yeah right! I know she couldn’t wait to get rid of us) and how this “always happens” (um, I have never seen it before). In the end, we have a half decent hair cut and I am totally covered in hair. Oh, and I get to do it all again in another 6 weeks. Yippee!

I guess I will have to go eat more jello!
