had a super nice sunday with my dad. we did some science experiments in the livingroom. mom had to take us to walmart for more balloons. it was fun. dad and i raided mom's craft drawer for rubber bands, string, tape and clothes pins. the only thing mom didn't have was balloons so dad and i bugged her until she drove us out to walmart.
walmart was stupid busy. i guess everyone goes there to hang out after church. dad and i went off to get things we needed and mom did the shopping with her list. we met up in the toy section. dad and i like looking at all the different lego. then mom comes along and says- no you can't have them. booooo. once we had everything we needed mom paid and back home we went.
mom hung out in the bedroom while dad and i built rocket balloons. we tied some string across the livingroom and then put a piece of straw on the string, then you need to fix a balloon on to the straw. it's kind of tricky but in the end you let the air out of the balloon and it shoots across the room. it was awesome. dad and i also built a air pressure gauge. you stretch a balloon over a jar and then glue a straw on top. then air pressure makes the straw go up or down. very cool.
dad also put my bookshelf together. i supervised. we put the shelf in my closet and then tidied up my room. it's nice to have a place for all my books.
