Chalk Art Festival

We went to the Gateway's sidewalk chalk art festival sponsered by Utah Foster Care. In this photo Emily is attempting to hook her two straws together. It didn't work so well, but what's impressive is that she just thought of that on her own.

This drawing is one of 50+ entries- all of them really good! Some artists spend 8+ hours on their square.


The kids got their hair spray painted green and blue. I thought it was funny, but they didn't seem to care too much.

The girls definitely did not love the water feature at the Gateway. It's the kind where there are little holes on the ground where water shoots upward at unexpected times. Emily lasted 3 minutes, Ashley 3 seconds.


Happy Father's Day Bryan! The kids sang to him in sacrament, he got lots of treats and yummy breakfast and dinner. He also got tickets to John Mayer concert in July. Best presents were no diaper changes all day and a long afternoon nap. With those perks I think I'm ready for another Mother's Day.
Here they are opening a new book from the girls, "Daddy's Toolbox." There are tool shaped pieces that you can take out and use. Each page has something that is 'broken' you get to fix. Genius idea for a cute yet manly book!
