Cheap Summer Thrill - Backyard Art Project


Dave and I thought we'd let the kids get involved in our latest trash to treasure makeover.
It's a large table with leaves.  We have an idea in mind for the table, but the kids don't know yet :)

Clayton cheesing for the camera!


I thought having the kids wear oversized t-shirts would be enough to keep paint from getting everywhere.
I was SO WRONG!

Stay tuned for more on our backyard art project!

  5. Nothing makes kids happier than thinking they are doing grown up stuff! I'm sure it was lots of fun for them.
