Pool Noodle Rainbow
Here is everything you need to get started!
I used the regular sized pool noodles, some hot glue, and yarn colors of your choice! The Drill saves so much time! I found a foam ball from the kids toys and it fit right in the hole, then wedge the largest drill bit I could find in between. I felt like McGyver, but it’s a hack you can appreciate!! The previous rainbow we made, I hand wound and it took days!! I still can’t believe I did that.
To give it some stiffness I added the copper pipe because that’s what we had leftover in the garage, but any bendable pipe would work. I also wove wooden skewers behind the noodles to hold it together!!
For the cord at the bottom I unwound the rope, cut into 6 inch sections and then folded those in half and frayed the ends 
To finish I glued the rope into the holes and then covered the bottom 2 inches of the rainbow with the undone rope to coverup the ends 
Let me know what colors you would put together!

Skates
If you missed my story post, Harper and I got roller skates! She’s pretty good, and I haven’t broken any bones yet..
You can find my skates here
We got lucky right after a thunderstorm the sky cleared and the beach was empty, making for a beautiful sunset!
The Mommy and Me Flag Cover up is from last year but you can still get it Next-Day just in time for the fourth! Coverups
These hats are new too and I can’t wait to wear them all summer! Hats I just got two woman’s hats, Harper must have a big head because it fit her perfect!!
The only thing that we’re missing is sparklers, but apparently there is a huge fine if you light one in the state park. I wasn’t going to risk it lol
In the end I’m glad I could inspire Harper, this girl has been skating around the house and won’t take them off. She had a pair of little tikes skates but they are more plastic and not as nice, she never really cared to use them. These roll nice and she looks so cute!
Annnnd Our swimsuits are from Target, you might recognize mine as the Fun Mom suit from my post here
I hope your enjoying the rest of the weekend, I’m off to plan an extravagant picnic for work, stay tuned.. and go check out our skating post if you missed it!

My Target Swim Haul!
*Audio is Mr Blue Sky by Electric Light Orchestra I do not own the rights to it. All this talk about #hotmomsummer got me thinking.. I just got some really cute suits at Target, that I need to show you!! They have really impressed me this year with the quality and fit of the suits. Target now has a variety of shapes and sizes for all body types! You really do have to try them on because they are all cut so different and small in one suit is not equivalent to a 34B and so on for every brand.
Doesn’t Get Her Hair Wet Mom
A little cheeky for me to wear around the kids, but you better believe when James and I have date night or a getaway I’m packing this one! It fits great and looks amazing on!
Sporty Mom
I honestly never thought I would own a rash guard style suit, but after wearing it a few times I love it! Perfect for kayaking or a full day out in the sun!!
Fun Mom
This red suit is very bright, I love the color! The top fits a little weird though with the ties. It’s probably not the suit, I don’t really have much to work with. I would still buy it again though!
Multitasking mom
This suit is juniors, like the red suit but fits better! I love the low cut bottoms. To me either make them high waisted or low cut.
Snack Mom
This suit is my favorite, the top has a ton of coverage and support and the bottoms aren’t too cheeky!
Bottom line if you’re a swimsuit snob like me you might want to check out Target they have really stepped their game up in the swim department!!
