"Picture" Perfect

We broke out our art easel a few days ago and the girls had some fun dripping paint on the deck ;) I love this picture because it is such a idyllic scene...french doors thrown open to a beautiful summer day, two sweet sisters expressing their inner selves through painting, etc. A big part of me though was having a heart attack hoping that the paint would come off of the deck, the railings, etc. without much trouble. Why is it that I have to be so darn tense all the time when it comes to my children? So what if a paint splat made it's evil way into the house? At least my girls had a small moment of carefree, childish happiness. (Now where is that Magic Eraser?)

That was really sweet scene. I was working from hom that day and Heather called me down from my office upstairs to see it. One of those priceless moments :)

This truly is a priceless scene. It may just be one of my all time favorite pictures of the girls. They are growing up so fast, it is fun to watch their personalities bloom.
Take more pictures, please.......
