Painting Pumpkins....and More!

Yesterday Ella and Aidan spent the afternon outside in the beautiful weather painting their pumpkins. I thought this not only seemed like an excellent usage of my former employer's shirts, but also a much safer activity for two, two-year olds than actually carving the pumpkins!

They had such fun choosing their colors, painting "faces", lines and shapes, and just getting messy!








It didn't take long at all before the pumkins themselves lost their appeal in favor of....

....shoes, which created wonderfully colorful footprints in the driveway....




....hands....



....shirts....


....your sister's shirt....


....and the trees!


In the end, we did end up with two beautifully painted pumpkin creations!

That is too funny that they painted all over the place.
