Family Craft Project

We all painted plaster eggs together today. It was a fun project and a riot to see Greg's OCD side. He was so specific with his plans that he used a razor and masking tape to create his design! If there was an award for using the most paint, Kate would win. Lauren used all of her favorite team colors on hers. Makenna's famous peace signs were incorporated into her design. It was a pleasant project while Ty napped. As the kids have gotten older we've found it more challenging to find mutual interests for family time. Games are getting more difficult too. There are too many ages represented in our family. It's a challenge I am determined to over come so any ideas you may have for us, please share! On a funny note, we played Life today and Greg pointed out the "Share the Wealth" card and called it the "Obama card"! Makenna encouraged Kate to be a doctor so she could make a lot of money and I laughed. Her puzzled expression only got the "this game was created before Obama care" explanation. Life....it has a way of changing dramatically at times.
