Fingerpaint!

I love that we can take advantage of the lovely fall weather to do our messy crafts outside, not just for the obvious clean-up advantages, but so we can soak up that lovely balmy air and sunshine!

You'd think that someone so obviously swamped by her enormous paint smock could go home without paint on her clothes, wouldn't you? HA! This girl is talented...

When fingers got boring, we tried other things in the paint. This long pine cone was Dries's favourite.

Apparently, Ada preferred using her face.

Whee! Lookit those hands!

Dries generously shared his pine cone with his baby sister.

She found it very tasty!

Leaves are also interesting to use in the fingerpaint.

Clean-up time! At least, initial clean-up. Removing enough of the paint from them that I was willing to bring them inside to the kitchen, where the soap and towels are!

I love fall. Just love it.
