Aren't Dads Fun?

Clay's brother and his family came into town to visit the week before Thanksgiving. We had fun spending time with them (although it's never enough). Addie especially loved playing with them this time. She thrives on older kids' attention!

The night they arrived, it was just the girl cousins over at Gaga's house. They played with the dolls, kitchen, barbies, treasures (old earrings, buttons and pins from Granny Goose) and then they broke out the markers. I had Addie take off her shirt so she wouldn't get marker all over it.




Gaga had some paintbrush type markers and Maddie had Aunt Livi paint things on their faces. Addie thought her purple heart was so cool.



After everyone had left, Addie wanted to draw a picture on Mommy. Of course, I said no and so Clay decided he'd be a nice Dad and let her paint his face. Addie painted hearts (or what she called hearts) all over his face!



The end result:


Aren't Dads Fun? Turns out the markers weren't really that washable---it took 2 showers to get it all off his face!
