Round up!
Play dough, ready for the week!
Cleaning the windows for window painting!
There was a thunder shower outside, so we decided to paint on the inside!
Isn't it lovely?
Supplies for self portraits
We had an event this weekend called the "Art walk". Local artists line the side walks for several blocks. Here is Kermit appreciating his grandma's work!
I hope everyone had fun this week! I am having a hard time getting anything done, the weather has been so gorgeous here, we just want to be outside!
