Playing Football with Dad

Having fun with dad can get a little wild, rough and tumble but the girls love it. He has them yelling during football games, although I know they don't really know why they are yelling, "yay!!!"

Oh, how time flies....

These are photos that were taken in August 2008...the girls painted and embellished their own butterfly wings.




Bell and Renny made these beautiful wings. This project came from the fact that I(mom) had spent to much money on many costumes from The Disney Store. The girls had enjoyed the costumes so much that they wore them every time the got the chance and even when they were getting a bit small for them they kept squeezing them on (you should have seen them it would have made you fall out of you chair laughing, the way they play- it's serious stuff to them you know),so I(mom) had to retire them reluctantly to the -Trash... OOPs, did I say that, YES!! So when Renny Ru and Kail Bell asked for more, I thought this would be a fun project for my crafty DIVAS to design and make their own. So with mom's help we came up with the template that she cut out for them but the extravagantly artistic designs are soley their own.

SUPPLIES: Card Board boxes for a big box store, you know the boxes that they put in the crusher after they stock the shelves with kleenex or paper towels, etc. You will need glue, acrylic paints and a bit of colorful party tissue to add flare- a party store or even art supply is where you should find this. The supplies are simple but the pay off is GREAT!!
"My little Dolls," Happy are they"- with the ecconomy as it is we all need a little break, even when it comes to crafting with the kids. Try this project out and let us know how it faired with you children.
