Today was scheduled to be another family day but we decided to take it easy in the morning and spend the afternoon with activities. I got my last package for CHA and sat to do my layouts immediately while the kids played and Jake took Nathaniel to music class. Once I was done and Nathaniel was up, we went out to a very late lunch/early dinner.
I took the opportunity to snap some photos.
After we were done, David wanted to checkout the ceramics place right next door and we decided to sit and paint one. He picked a race car and we all painted.
He picked his own colors.
Even though he wasn’t allowed to touch anything, Nathaniel was very patient.
But eventually he got really bored so we let him play with the toy in the store and he was happy.
Daddy and David worked patiently and covered 3 layers as they were told.
When we were done, we went to a local playground and the boys played while I shot photos.
They were quite happy.
Nathaniel loves going down the slide with Daddy.
And then we were all wiped so we came home. Jake played will with David for a short while and now the kids are sleeping and I still have to do my sketching since I skipped it this morning. Tomorrow is back to work for a few days and then another family day this week. I love these days. They’re like mini-vacations but we get to come home and sleep in our own bed.
I hope your day was wonderful, too.
Oh, and in case you didn’t see it, I have a long article on how I do my weeklong art journaling on write.click.scrapbook today.
Three Things I’m Grateful For:
1. I am grateful I am done with all my CHA work and checked off another big item on my todo list.
2. I am grateful for a wonderful lunch and fun time with my whole family, love them so so so much.
3. I am grateful that I have even more downtime coming up. It’s been great to take some time off, apparently I needed it more than I thought I did. I am even looking forward to working tomorrow.
Three Things David’s Grateful For:
1. I am grateful that we painted a ceramic racecar. {* his pick for the journal}

what a wonderful and fun family day for all of you. So glad you got some time off and could play. We all need days like this. Great pictures from your outings. Have a good day today and hope work goes smoothly for you.
