Extravaganza

Yesterday, Lovely L and Miss C came from California to visit. We wanted to have an art play date and let the girls get to know each other a little bit better. It was the first time Lovely L has met New Fish and New Fish was immediately in love with her. (I think it stems from a shared love of accessories!)
We made some handprint ornaments out of sculpy. It went much better than last year's attempt at ornaments.

The girls did some paintings and had a bath.

We wish Lovely L and Miss C could come over all the time! Two hours a year just isn't enough! It was so fun to see them though. Miss C is getting so big. She was born almost between my little girls and I hope the three of them can be great friends.
After Miss C left to get a nap and New Fish went down for a nap, Red Fish was determined to keep creating. She got out all of the collage materials and started gluing. Then she got out the some mask templates and made herself a mask fitting for the mardi gras.
Then Lovely N and Miss A stopped by and the artistic flurry just kept going.
They colored some masks and chased each other all over the house.
Then the three girls spent the rest of the afternoon playing with salt dough.
And of course- the girls had to work on their ornaments with some more paint and a little glitter. We will insert pictures of them into the little frames when they are dry.

The creating didn't end until well after dinnertime. There was coloring and drawing galore. My house may not recover but the girls had a fabulous day!
