Okay, first off, don't forget to enter my contest to win a copy of The Schoolhouse Planner.  Every homeschooling mom should have a copy of this, and you might just be able to get a free one through this contest!  Check out my blog entry from June 28th for all of the rules.

Now, I need some help.  My boys are having a combined birthday party July 5th and they want it Lego themed.  I have always had pinatas for the parties, but could not find any at the local party supply stores, so I have to make them (2, to be exact).  Now, be honest, and be brutal-  does this, in any way, resemble a real Lego?  I still need to paint it, and I have 1 more to do, but I am hoping these will work well.  I am not a creative person at all and have been terrified to start this project.  What do you think???

And, don't even get me started on how *icky* paper mache is to work with.  I hate mess and goo, and, well, eewwww.  Deuce and Cody are going to do the next one, so hopefully I won't have to touch the sticky stuff again, LOL.
