art daze

we spent the day indoors yesterday.

it was hot outside.

super hot.


and for us, we are used to 50-65 degrees. with 65 being way higher than usual.

it was 82 degrees!

on monday, it was similarly hot and we spent the day out side playing and we played outside into the night.

but it wore them out.


when they realized it was hot again, they asked to paint.


so we all did some painting and it turned into 5 hours straight of painting, pastels, drawing, sketching, etc...

perfect sunday....

it started with pumpkin smoothies...


there were eucalyptus groves and redwoods and beautiful autumn colored forests.... but i forgot to take any pictures, save this ONE as we pulled out of the eucalyptus...


we went shopping and got new shoes, we went and bot pizza with TWO beautiful and awesome friends (and i forgot to take pictures of that too)


then we came home and FINALLY finished this book. It was 80+ pages of icelandic horses and their history as the "bridges of iceland"... it was fascinating at times, but since it is told from the perspective of the horse- which is great for the kids- they enjoy that- it was a little thick in some spots.... i had a hard time not skipping ahead by pages at certain points....


and then there was more cleaning of the toys....
