Things Around the (old) House







Three Kids, One Adult, 1/2 Day with Watercolors


Normally when I break out the watercolors it ends in disaster and occasionally tears (both mine and the children's).
I used all lessons learned in the past and helped focus my oldest on her Van Gogh reproduction, while simultaneously starting the boys on their Jackson Pollack reproductions (not really, but I did refer to it as the "drippy paint" method).
I found the results of this project not only shockingly complete, but jaw droppingly awesome.
Oldest got 4th place in her division. WhooHAAAA!!








Howdy!

Enjoy this spectacular Safeway baked watermelon themed cake. I know we did.
