It has been raining for what feels like forever. I think we are all tired of being cooped up in the house and even though there have been a couple of days where the sun came out it was really too muddy to go out. Anyway we have had come up with new rainy day things to do. This week Kassi decided she wanted to make a pinata. After watching several video clips online she found one she liked and I was okay with the supplies and plaster materials so we decided to try it.
Kassi wanted her pinata to be really strong and the things we read and watched said it needed a minimum of three layers and to be strong should have six layers. Each layer took a full day due to dry time. On the fourth day she decided it was strong enough and she was done. I went ahead and put one extra layer on it for her.
Today we finished decorating and stuffing the pinata. Kassi is so excited and I think it looks kind of cool. It is sad to think that it will only take a couple of hits and it will be all over! I promised Kassi a picnic with her friends and the pinata next weekend if it is nice. So hopefully we will see the sun this week and she can have her party.
