Chalk Wars
So, this happened a while ago, but our backyard is still graced by the after effects of this battle. One afternoon, in a desperate attempt to get something done in the house, I gave the boys a bucket of fat chalk, escorted them to the backyard and took my leave with barely a backward glance. I knew what the consequences would be, but I was willing to accept them. Little did I know that a short while later, upon surveying the war efforts, I would discover this - two little painted Indians putting an end to war through art ... chalk art ... everywhere:
did he truly eat the chalk? that is great.
ReplyDeleteOh my, eating the chalk. GAG!!!, The car looks beautiful though.
ReplyDeleteAh hahahaha! I couldn't help laughing when I saw his little blue mouth. Why is it that kids will eat things like chalk but not peas? lol.
ReplyDeleteYuck I can't believe he would eat chalk, just the texture is nasty, I can't imagine the taste. Those are cute pictures though, and hey if they had fun that's all that matters.
ReplyDeleteI knew Soren and Jonathan and Anders and Katelyn were the same age, but I never would have guessed they'd be on the same wavelength! Especially with you guys in CA ... I swear those could have been pictures of my kids this summer, Katelyn being the chalk eater. The best part though, is when they discover the hose and make everything a chalky, WET mess!I love the pictures. How do you get such big pictures on your blog?
ReplyDeleteOh dear . . . hilarious! Well, only kinda hilarious until you think of the mess that you had to clean up! Yikes! That's quite a blue mouth!
ReplyDeleteAhh! The blue mouth pains me a little. Glad the boys had fun!
