Halloween Fun

.
The other day I went to put in our latest art projects in our art portfolio, and I took a few minutes to slip back in time and admire my firstborns' art work. Wow! I was completely taken back at all that I used to do with him compared to what Fletcher has done in his two short years. Colton had so many completed art projects in our "portfolio" just in his first two years that all I could think was "my poor Fletchy poo!". Oh how it saddened me that so much time has slipped by and all the opportunities that I've already missed out on doing art with him. Typically Colton, Gracie and I do art while he is taking his nap so "the baby" doesn't "get in the way". What was I thinking. Well, I know it was easier that way so I didn't have the extra mess to clean up that he surely would create, but no mess will stop me now!

{I love how they all turned out uniquely different. Just as the artists are.}

{One beautiful mermaid and one silly clown. I was so happy with their cheerful and innocent choice of costumes. I am not into the gory side of Halloween. At all.}

I still don't have any pictures of little Fletch in his costume. He got attacked by ants just after going outside to take pictures so daddy stripped him of his ant filled costume and took the screaming boy inside. Hopefully tonight!
