Crafty Kids

Caroline has been asking to do a craft for the past few days. Since Daddy is gone for the week and we didn't have any plans, today seemed like a good day for a "project." After spending lots of time cruising up and down the aisles at Hobby Lobby they finally decided that they wanted to paint something and that something was going to be a mailbox. "Mom, we can write eachother LETTERS!!!" (Hmmm, I wonder how many letters they will actually be writing??? Maybe we can keep letters from Nana and Grandma in there....)

So, here are my little Picaso's starting out. Look at the concentration!

And here are the finished projects. Caroline worked a long time on her mailbox, even adding flowers and pom- poms for a little extra decoration. She really is a girl after my own heart!

Connor did a really nice job, gotta love the robot and car :)

I love how proud they are of what they made. And the best part...they didn't fight once during the time it took to make these! Maybe they'll find a little love note in their mailboxes tonight from a Mom who thinks these kids are the greatest.
