Family Portrait Party: Mom
In everyone's defense, Mom was the first one to pose for the Portrait Party... we were still warming up. Dad even threw out his original drawing and redid it later when all the kids were asleep. (Cheater!)

Great Outdoors
Isaac & Dad Hiking Through the Woods
by Isaac
I enjoy walking in the woods with my Dad. It is fun because we can talk to each other while it is quiet and no other kids are there. We look around at trees and grass. There is a tree I really like to climb that we call the Octopus Tree because it has a whole bunch of branches going down. Sometimes we even walk to a stream. Once I got stuck on the other side of a stream and had to cross a log to get back.

"Worry" by Isaac
"Worry" for Illustration Friday
by Isaac, age 9
This robber has good reason to worry -- when Iron Man smashes his hand through the wall!
Werd Hoses
Gracie has plastered our dining room wall with a gallery of thousands (okay, more like 10, but it seems like thousands) of Werd Hoses. -- I do believe she meant "Weird Horses."
I loved the variety from horse to horse and thought I'd post a few...
And here's a picture Lily added to the mix:

Oink Oink
Our local Culver's restaurant had a contest for kids to draw a picture from their favorite book. Lily had recently done this for Illustration Friday (see 9 posts below). She made another picture based on Arthur Geisert's "Oink Oink" -- this time in color. Well, Lily's picture won top prize! It's on display in a frame behind the counter. Lily was beaming! And she also pocketed fabulous prizes. Congratulations Lily!
