We (Jonathan, Addy, and I as well as Tyler, Jenni, and their girls) went downtown to the City & County Building for the Youth Festival. They had lots of tents up with different fun activities to do. I think Addy may enjoy it a little more next year.
At the Home Depot station, you could make a birdhouse or a stool or a helicopter. Tyler & Jenni's girls were very cooperative. If you notice in this picture, there is no Addy, just Jonathan making the helicopter for her. She didn't want anything to do with a hammer and nails. 
Addy & Annie 
Addy wasn't so sure about getting her face painted, so Claire went first to show her how easy it was and how cool it looked when it was all finished. When I asked Addy if she wanted to get hers done, she still said, "No." So the nice lady suggested she just do a little flower on Addy's arm. I thought it was a great idea. 
Addy didn't think it was such a great idea. Sheesh, you'd think she was getting a shot or something. Buck up Addy, it's just paint! After the trauma was over, if you asked her to see her pretty flower, she would pull her arm in close to her body and say, "No!" 
But, no worries, it's nothing a little sugar can't fix.
...and sprinkles...
...and more sprinkles. I finally had to move them out of hands reach which brought on another melt down. 
I guess you won't have to worry about her wanting any tattoos...
ReplyDeleteSo Em got me blogging and I can't believe the connections that blogging has. Look at your adorable super blonde girl. (like I should be suprised.) I heard you work at Lifetime. Too bad I only am there to hit the pool now and then. Anyway, such a cute family.
