Rock Painting

Spent the weekend afternoon painting some rocks. I used paint pens on some, some I used the paint brush and some I painted with the new dotting tool that I bought few days back. 

I have been waiting to try doing dot painting. Earlier I would just use the paint brush or the pens to draw the dots, but using these tools does make it easier.

Day at the beach

Even though we live so close to the ocean, we do not get to go to the beach as often as we would like to. But this past weekend was the first trip to the beach this summer and we got to spend some quality relaxing time at the beach...:)  The weather was perfect - the kids played in the water, collected shells and had fun making sand castle.

Day at the Beach

This is from the trip to the beach last summer. The kids had so much fun, making sand castles, collecting sand crabs, rocks and shells. When the kids had collected some rocks, I started playing with the rocks too, placing the rocks in different ways and one of the things I loved was making these paws with the rocks. How cool is this!!!
