Color Me Mine

Our playgroup took an outing to Color Me Mine to have the kids paint pottery this morning. You get to choose a piece to paint, add color and then leave it with them and they fire it for you in about a week. After that you have a glazed keepsake to display. The two boys in the group chose a football (Ben) and a motorcycle, while the girls all choose pretty figurines - cat, fish and seahorse. The kids all seemed to have fun, at least for most of the time.

Here's Ben in his gigantic smock that Mommy donated from her drawers. It was his first time ever painting!

Very seriously painting his football...and getting a little on his face in the meantime!

Mommy and Ben (with Nate sleeping through the entire outing behind us in his stroller!).

Anna and Teddy painting his motorcycle.

Caroline with her cat figurine and mommy Roberta.

Julia and her mom Nicole are painting a seahorse together.

Olivia and her mommy Kiera painting a Clown Fish.

The whole gang after painting and before going to lunch. We'll see how the creations turn out when we can pick them up next week.
