Christmas Countdown Day 2

Today's activity was a quick and easy art project - fingerprint candy canes.  Draw an outline of a candy cane on construction paper.  Then alternate white and red paint from fingertips on the outline.  Cute, fun, and not too messy!

Happy Easter

Image
I hope you and your family had a wonderful, happy Easter!  Ours sure did!!!!   We started the fun on Saturday evening by decorating Easter eggs.  We managed to spill 0 cups of egg dye and I only cracked 3 eggs while boiling them.  As you can see, egg dying is a serious and thought provoking experience in our house. The Easter Bunny left baskets on the table and hid eggs downstairs for the kids on Easter morning.  The baskets had an art book, a book to read, Mad Libs, Tsum Tsums, one small toy, and some chocolate.  We spent the afternoon with family having another egg hunt and dinner.  It was a great way to spend a warm, Easter Sunday!

And of course, no trip is complete without a little gem hunting! Last, but not least the kids rode the cow train.  S was till upset we didn't do this last year.  He definitely enjoyed the r...

Get in the Photo

I don't mind being in a photograph!  I know that's not true for most people, but it is for me.  The problem is, I'm usually the one taking the pictures.  Because of that I appear in very few of them.  I have a tripod and 2 different types of remotes.  But most days I don't take the time to get them out.  This year I'm trying to change that and get into the pictures more!
