Birdhouses and Four Generations of Family

It should by no means be inferred that family drives us cuckoo.  We just like arts and crafts.  And love being with family!  The morning started off with birdhouses, acrylics and glitter.

Owen is all about LSU colors these days.  They are his favorite college football team.

Much time and thought went into the placement of each drop of glitter glue and brush stroke.  When they were all done, they were both certain they had masterpieces they could sell for upwards of $25.

I should have done a better job setting up my camera for Uncle Mike as it's so rare we get all the Finney women together.

Since Aunt Judy and Uncle Chris were also in town this weekend, a trip to Provino's was in order.  Their garlic rolls are sooooo good.

The Artist at Work

I love that Owen loves to draw and color and paint. It completely captures his attention. His head tilts to one side, his mouth opens a little and his hearing becomes a little slow because he is so focused on what he is creating.


I want to take the kids to a local art store this weekend and pick out new art supplies for them. A new medium that isn't in our shelves. Maybe some larger canvases and watercolors (the real kind in tubes, not hanging from the Crayola shelves at Target).
