Finger Paint

It's been a week of fall flurry. Doesn't happen often, but when I get in the cleaning/organizing mode- watch out. Needless to say it's been a light homeschooling week. But, the Taj Mahal is spotless-until the backhoe starts running once again... and the greasy fingers make pictures on the windows... and....

One activity we did fit in and one that's best done outdoors- finger paints! 4 pairs of little fingers made quite the mess- uh, I mean masterpieces.

Very fitting for my little Elizabeth~

and Jacob :)

What is it about getting your hands all gooey?

Let's forget that finger paints were done in shorts and t-shirts just a few days ago, and this is Elisha and Jacob playing outside today :(

Back to some finishing touches on the house~ and some school-work prep for the little ones~

My kids HATE to fingerpaint. LOL They don't want to get messy. Funny how they don't care if anything else on or around them is messy. Oh well.

I noticed a reel mower in that last picture. Do you guys use that on the yard? I miss my reel mower, but don't miss mowing the yard in Chicago. I could, however, live without paying someone else to do it.
