Art Class

Grandma Cathy generously takes the kids every Monday afternoon and teaches art lessons. She is very creative with their projects. They have made some really neat things this year. She is a watercolor artist so they have all been blessed by her wisdom with this type of painting. She also taught them how to make wire sculptures this year. (And I have to admit, I've gotten addicted to making wire wrapped rocks for crosses- thanks to her introduction of this type of art). We are all very thankful to Cathy for the time and energy she puts into their learning and loving art!

This week's project was gingerbread houses! It's hard to compete with that, grandma :)

This is by far their favorite subject in school this year! Aly loves art class and usually produces beautiful pieces.

Her house was brightly colored, unique and cheerful.

Blake's house was really meticulous.
The M&M roof was perfectly color-coded, and nothing was out of place.

Jessi always adds animals to all of her projects. There are "creatures" all around the house and decorating the rooftop.

One day, the kids made homemade pasta with grandma and grandpa then served it for dinner.

I was in Texas but heard that it was delicious!
Look at Blake......Hopefully he'll keep this up for his future wife!
