Sunday Craft Night

We stayed home tonight instead of visiting with family like we usually do on Sunday nights for several reasons: Allie is fighting a cold, my mom is in Alaska, gas prices, and it was nice to just be together as our little family. After a game of Candyland that ended prematurely with Allie throwing the little men and cards everywhere, we had to get creative. I love toll painting, and hopefully someday will have time to do more of it, so I dug through my craft box and this is what we made!

We painted pumpkins

and made them into

magnets for our

fridge! Can you tell

which one is Allie's?

Nick was such a

good sport! He

was so creative

with his pumpkins!

I can't wait for him

to do our real

pumpkins this

year!

Mine didn't turn

out too bad either!

We had a lot of

fun doing it as

a family!

This is currently

the face Allie makes

when you tell her

to say "cheese".

Allie painted a

pumpkin, a

plate...

on paper and on

the table...

and ALLLL over her

body. This picture

doesn't come near

to showing how much

of her body was

covered. Apparently

I took the plastic bag

off too early...

She even took off

her shoes to paint

the bottom of her

feet! We love our

Allie Mae!

HALLOWEEN IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER!!
