Thursday, June 9th ~ Paint...Paint...Paint

The kids have been wanting to paint all week so today was the day.  B had a little bird house to paint that Grandma B had left for him and Carter had a little bird house as well as the bird house he made for his teacher.

B was pretty into his painting, once he was finished with the bird house he was trying to get his hands on everything and anything he could paint...including blank pieces of cardboard.  I'm not sure the paint was even dry before he was out back behind the shed finding a place to hang it!

After painting his name on the bird house Carter made for his teacher, he headed outside to oil it.  He made the bird house by himself with some help from Great Grandpa Swayze.  Not only did they make one..but they had to make three...one for grandpa, one for us and one for his teacher!  Dad dropped the oil off this afternoon and so Carter was eager to get at it.  I tried to help him a bit and he would have nothing to do with that "I know how mom"...thus I left him be and he did a great job!
