Day Two Hundred Eighteen

Rock Art, Bubbles and Backhoes


Shelby fashions some colorful rock art this morning with felt tip markers.

Elijah makes some rock art of his own using a big chunk of cement from the broken up sidewalk in the front yard.

Skin art is even more fun!

A day with blowing some bubbles is a day with fun and sun.

Elijah got up close and personal with the big backhoe the Public Works guy used to dig up the sidewalk. Our old sidewalks are gone now in front of our house. Our street looks like a war zone. Elijah had the best time watching the big machine do its digging, lifting and dumping--the stuff little boy's dreams are made of.

I like your pix of the kids! The one with Shelby in the background blowing bubbles with Elijah is really good! Cute that he was curious about the machines... glad he got to see them work! It's always fun to draw on other things besides paper!!! They are going to be so greatful that you captured their lives on this blog! Hopefully they'll remember most of it. :o)

That's the best part of this blogging thing for me--it's such a nice little scrapbook of day to day stuff. Thanks for liking my picture!
