THE ARTS...are back!

Oh, I doodle all the time,

but haven't touched a paint brush in a few months.

Life has just taken over.

Well, THE ARTS...

they made their way back into our home again.

Inspiring...and WOW...just freeing!

Yesterday...my SIL Suzanne and I took the girls to a little play.

THE MAGIC SCHOOL BUS:  GLOBAL WARMING!

They all seemed to enjoy the song and dance!

And it's always great to go back to PURDUE!

We got married on campus...

had our reception there too...

So, had to get the girls' pix right were our reception was held!

And if a cute play wasn't enough...

We created our valentines this past weekend!

I found a little saying on a birthday site.

Drew up the pix.

Hubs made copies.

Added google eyes to Henry's...little more masculine.

Filled his with goldfish crackers.

And the girls?

They added ribbons and fun.

Their fill request?

Sweedish fish!

The girls...so excited to take their valentines to school!

And Henry...

first Valentine's party tomorrow at preschool!

So excited when he made his first Valentine art!

Probably won't get the whole Valentine's thing, but will definitely go for the goodies!

And crafting with the kids...

made me really miss art.

I needed a fix,

so had a little fun yesterday.

Started out with a cereal box...

ended up with this:

Yep, just stopped daily life to create,

but OH MY! 

Like a HUGE deep breath!

I forgot how much I missed some creativity!

And even hubs got out the paint yesterday!

Painted Henry's room!

Can't wait to show you...

new BIG BOY bed ordered,

comforters here!

So, THE ARTS...

wonderful to have them back into swing again!
