Just Hanging Out...

Days have been flying with nothing crazy to report. We have been blessed with beautiful weather for the end of August so we are trying to play outside as much as possible. Here are some pics of an afternoon spent outside with "chalk paint." My friend Sara gave me this idea from her blog. It's super easy - corn starch, water and food coloring - and I agree that it was more fun than your standard sidewalk chalk. After all, there must be a correlation between fun and mess :) While her kids are a little older than mine - you can see what E was most interested in!! Luckily it was cool enough for her to wear jeans for the next two days as her legs were dyed bright green, yellow and blue from the food coloring. Maybe we have a future scientist on our hands? J was definitely taken with the painting aspect of the activity - at least when her sister wasn't trying to destroy her precious artwork...





Other than some fun stuff around the house, we spent Tuesday and today at playgrounds around STL. . Russ was traveling Tuesday so I figured a perfect night to have a McD's picnic at Buder Park and run some energy off. Today was so pretty that we met Robyn and Mickey up at Suson Park for a couple of hours to play, picnic and see the animals.
Good Times.
