Good thing we have been so busy with outside activities that our inside activities have been stacking up – because yesterday it rained A L L – D A Y!  While I was excited about the rain – the children were less than excited until we went to Hobby Lobby to pick up some more craft supplies.

Here are some photos from our inside adventures….

Is that make-up on the boy-child? No we are face painting!

She couldn’t quit giggling while she painted brothers face!

He was so patient!

The “artist” with her painting!

Many of the photos below are taken by the kiddos – with my big camera – with threats of bodily harm if they got face paint on my camera!  They used “live-mode” and did a very fine job with photography!

Now it was my turn to paint!

And my subject!

Peas in a Pod!

He did enjoy this activity!

And now he is the artist!

A mustache and a beard and you see that dot in the middle of my forehead? A bullet hole! Great!

Keep them closed!

The finished product!

And the “artist” with the painting! Quite a pair aren’t we?

Hey – I figured out the timer!  We can all be in the photo!

Then we were on to apron painting!

A grey apron for the boy! NO RUFFLES!

Pretty cute!

Love it!

We also tried painting flip flops, paint did not work so well, next time we will try markers.  At least 3 washings and a shower and we have most of the face paint off!

Mr. B learned a new move in Karate yesterday – it is the Hip Throw!  Lots of fun!  Today I think we will tie-dye and go ice-skating!

What will you do on a perfect summer day!
