"Selfie" Fun Album

We all know how our kids like to take our

phones and cameras and take pictures of themselves....

who doesn't love a "selfie".

I remember as a kid how I loved looking at pictures

of myself.

So, I was looking through some old CD's of pictures last night

and ran across some pretty funny ones of the kids

and thought to myself...wouldn't it be fun to

make a Shutterfly album or one that you make yourself
with some of these silly pictures that they
have taken over the years...

It would help document their interests and what they were

thinking about and their sense of humor while they 

were young.

 this is apparently him practicing his mugshot photos... hee hee

 One of them made this on the "paint" program

 My oldest was fascinated with all my old show wigs that

I wore when singing...I think this was Reba McIntyre

I found a lot of pictures of my son's toys...this was his backpack

ready to spend the night at Grandmas

They took a camera to my moms to document their stay

My son also liked to lay out his clothes the

night before and put his Spiderman pillow in there

for the head.  lol

I had to put one of myself in there.  We found baby squirrels in

the yard and they were very friendly...this one was trying

to climb up my leg...

not sure what is on his head....

this was probably his first great selfie... love it!

Garden Stepping Stones

My niece made these with her children and niece and nephew....

Heather used a Flour recipe:

1C - Flour

1C - Salt

1/2 C- Water

(which we don't know how it will hold up in the weather)

Shellac will definitely help with that a bit

these could also be used to paint and hang on the wall...just

push some paper clips in the back while wet and leave the loop hanging out to

use to attach string to, (to hang)...or one loop to hang on a nail

I have made these before, but used actual cement....

which is not as easy to write in....

We also used foil pie plates to put the cement in. 

and then decorated with different things...

(I will show pics of those later this week)

Also, Heather used cake decorating stamps that she found at 
Walmart to do the writing.... and then let the kids 
go to town painting

have fun...
