Our Artists

We decided the townhouse could use some art on the walls, so the boys and I started in without much of a plan. Round 1 was a mix of brushes and hands.

Round 2 was crackling. I forgot to photograph it. Since we had such great texture from Round 1, I thought it'd be neat to make it look more like wood. Crackling achieved that. Round 3 was spray painting of some of our favorite beach words in Italian - Sara (and the Tofanelli clan) would be proud. It looks amazing if I do say so myself. Tonight, after finishing at 9:15pm we laid on the stairs and enjoyed it. The boys are eager for the next project, I said they could each do their own. They loved the techniques so "momma is going to help with the crackle." And Dallas is going to do stencils and patterns of hearts. Are we surprised?






OK it's been awhile!

Back on my feet and having fun again after a long absence from being sick (darn colon!) This is us at the San Jose Giants game this weekend with their buddy Connor - we met through church and then pre-school.
