quarter machine necklaces and jello castles

Whenever I need to have a childish moment, I know who to call upon.
Nic Bott. 
Yes. He's the perfect person to go to when I want to do silly things, and I know there's no one else to convince of doing them. In the past we've gone pudding painting. But this time, Nic decided we were going to make jello castles. Twas quite the blast. We made a quick trip to the dollar store where we purchased some sand castle molds {which, by the way, are incredibly hard to find at the end of summer} and then we took our change and bought ourselves some coolie necklaces. Wanna see?

Yep. Ace of diamonds and a magic 8 ball.
It took a lot of effort to squeeze those child-size necklaces over our adult-size heads. But we managed.

Anywho. Here's the process of making a jello castle. {Which is hard to do}

And then you wait ...

The finished product!! 

haha! ok. It didn't turn out.. a dinosaur came along and destroyed it. But! It was still quite the fun time.

So, If you're ever in for an adventure. Make jello castles. Or go pudding painting. It shall provide entertainment. (:
