Celebrating Grandma

Tomorrow is my mom's birthday,

so today we {my sister and I} took her on an outing with the little girls...

to paint pottery!

 

We chose a nice big platter for her to use at all of our family gatherings.

 



 

First we painted on the base coat, a light tan color that covered the whole dish.

Us mommies made sure that the entire dish was painted before we moved on,

this was the not-so-fun part for the little girls.

 

 

Then we let the little girls freehand paint with a light green and light blue color...



Once the plate was full of color and mostly dry we put each little girls handprint on...

 

And we finished it off with some personalization,

this was the most nerve-wracking  part...



 But the finished product turned out perfect,

and Grandma loved it !!

 

It was an adventure, and a bit challenging with 3 of the 4 girls not really being "in to it".

I bet you can guess which girl loved it the most.

 

After our arts and crafts session it was time for dinner and cake...

 4 out of 4 girls were in to that !

 

Happy Birthday Grandma !!
