Saturday, DH took DT, JT, and DA to our church's Pinewood Derby. DT and JT both entered cars in it. JT won a medal for best paint job. DT was disappointed not to win a medal but there were more children in his class. Here are the pictures:

Sunday DT (9), JT (6), and I went to see Hal Weber's art show at Garden Spot Village. DT and JT enjoyed viewing the pictures and being able to talk to Mr. Weber and ask him a few questions. They were the only children there and he seemed to enjoy talking to them. He gave them hints on drawing and painting. When we arrived home they pulled out their papers and paints and put to practice what they learned. Here are the results:

A Tow Truck by DT

A Rainy Early Spring Day by JT

Spring Flowers in a Vase by JT

DA (age 4) got in on the fun and painted the following two pictures:

Springtime


Spring Day

If you click on their painting to enlarge it, then you may see that they followed Mr. Weber's advice and drew a picture first before painting it.   They had a lot of fun with it.
