Face painting

The face painting started last Halloween. The kids LOVED it. I thought it would be a nice treat for the neighbor kids at the Easter eggs hunt. 


Of course i couldn't find the paint i had last year so i had to go buy a new set (secretly happy about that, now if my old set would return it would be GREAT). The kids loved it and that led to random days at home with  saber tooth tigers, super heroes, queen of the jungle and Eric was even brave enough to let the kids paint him. Yea for cool dads! 






ARRRRRRRRRGGGNNNN'T you going to get some face paints for your kids? :)

Saturdays

We moved into our house here in Alabaster almost a year ago now. One of the best things about living so close is being able to get in the car and go hang out with Grandma and Grandpa. One Saturday we surprised Dad at the store and when Ben was finished helping him work we met mom for lunch on the lake. It was a great lunch on a Spring day. We watched the boats and the kids got new t-shirts and then spent the rest of the afternoon digging a hole in a pile of dirt. It was a wonderful Saturday.







Even Mom dug for a bit.

This would be a picture from another Saturday spent with Grandma.
