yesterday afternoon...

Yesterday afternoon, after her schoolwork was done, Clara asked if she could paint a picture to hang above her desk in her room. I happened to have one canvas left so we got it down, picked out some paint colors and set her up on the back deck...
She loves to paint...
When Alex found out that Clara was going to be outside, he announced that he was going to go outside too, but he was going to build volcanoes...
(I have no clue why he had that bandanna around his head, but it was there ALL DAY)

So, he grabbed a box of baking soda and the big bottle of vinegar and started to work on his volcano.

They were out there for a couple of hours, working away.

Here's Clara's finished painting...
Now we just have to get it hung up in her room!

Okay... I'm behind schedule this morning... gotta run!
