The White House

There is a 1.8 mile walking trail that goes around this little lake and the park.

The park also has a cute little playground.

Oh how Quinn loves the monkey bars.  And this one was just the right height.

Flying like an airplane high up in the sky!

Cherry trees are great for climbing because the branches are low and there are alot of them.

We picked a couple of blossoms and headed home.

I like to change our shelf display in the kitchen with every season and include Quinn\’s school artwork and projects.  Whenever I add something new, Quinn immediately notices and pulls off whatever it is to give it a closer inspection.  The non-breakable stuff goes on the bottom shelf and the breakables go up high.  Right now we have some hopping bunnies and chicks, wooden easter eggs, a stuffed bunny and a new piece of Quinn\’s artwork.  I was inspired by this blog post.  I love the way internet moms are so creative and sharing!

I mixed up a couple of different colors for Quinn and he went to work painting the sky on a piece of canvas.

Then some white fluffy clouds.

See that cloud on the right?  He calls that his \’pretzel cloud\’.

So much fun!

And concentration.

We took a break and then worked on the green grass, transferred some flowers on to the painting, glued on white fluffy cotton balls, added popsicle sticks for legs, toy tires for eyes, I put on some finishing touches, and then we mod podged the whole thing.   Here\’s our creation.
