Fun with horsey

Eve LOVES this new horse balloon. Thanks Greg and Kathy! This morning she decided it was tired and tried to put a blanket on it for a nap. Hilarity ensued as the hovering horse kept slipping out from underneath the blanket, much to Eve’s frustration (and mine that I didn’t have the camera in hand!) Instead we decided to use the blanket for a picnic. Horse got her own plate.

snack

Eve was happy to "help" horse pull her head down to reach the snack.

socks

This is Eve's very disappointed face when she discovered that her new Hello Kitty socks don't fit the horse.

While we ate lunch we decided to play a game of Candy Land. Horse got to play too, with a little help from Eve.

red

Horse is the red player because she has a red harness and therefore it must be her favorite color. :)

stools

Do you like the stools Eve gathered so the horse could reach the table? I suggested a chair but she insisted stools would be better.

This last one is just a funny picture. You wonder where she gets her energy from?!?

tea

Just kidding, it's blueberry tea and I drank most of it.

Artwork by Lex

Sometimes Lex gets very quiet and I find him standing in front of the easel, dry erase marker in hand, as though inspiration just struck! Lately he has been turning out complex drawings with lots of details. There was a great one last week, and here is yesterday’s masterpiece.

easel

Starting from the top, there are trees, and a parking lot with cars (top view, I think) and a beach. On the beach is a golf cart (because their is a golf course nearby but "I didn't have enough room to draw the golf course too!"), a sand castle, a life guard chair, a person lying on a towel, and a kid playing with a bucket. In the water you see starfish and other fish and right at the bottom in the middle is a crab.

I LOVE his creativity and attention to detail!
