Embracing our creative side

The whole family sat down after dinner and did a little painting. Ryann was SO excited when we told her we were going to paint after she finished eating, that she actually quite talking, (for the fist time since we picked her up) so she could hurry up and finish her meal. We all had a great time. This was Aiden's first experience with paint. He did a really great job. Only tasted it once. LOL! Ryann and Aiden both painted a couple of 'masterpieces', but the best one of all was on the side of Aiden's head.....

Ryann had an awesome two weeks at school. She came home everyday with a smiley in her folder! We asked if she had any friends, she told us yes. I asked if she had a best friend and she said her name was Adrian, and that she had brown hair. Ryann seems to really be enjoying school. She asks to read every book she sees. Since she did do SO well her first two weeks she got to go to Target and spend some of her money. She picked out a cute little Polly Pocket set. She was super excited when she got to pay for it all by herself!

Hope you're all enjoying your long weekend as much as we are!
