{Patio Art}

This is where we spent Saturday morning.

And most of the day, really.

On the back patio.

Barefoot. Sun shining. 

In and out the back door a hundred times.

In the sandbox, getting cups and cups of water from the rain barrel.

Reading magazines, drinking coffee and eating our lunch outside.

We got out the paints and painted canvases and these pots. 

The kids loved painting the canvases and can't wait for them to be hung.

Sometimes I forget how proud they are of their work when I step back at don't butt in at all, 

not even to mention how they are missing the cardboard and getting the paint all over the patio.

Oh well, the rain will wash it away.

So our pots are painted and dry and ready to be planted in now.

Basil? Lavender? Daisies? Hmmmm.....decisions.

Charlotte's braids were each dipped in paint at least twice I think.

It was a lovely day on the patio.

Happy Monday everyone!
