The kids have a room at Grandma & Grandpa's house that they have overtaken, and we'll use these portraits to spruce up the space. Just one more grandchild to go and we'll have a complete set!

Everyone's an Artist!
I was struggling to come up with a great idea for my mom's birthday when I found this idea online. While we were at their house for dinner {she cooked her own birthday dinner - how pitiful is that!}, we secretly engaged in a little artistic creativity. I purchased 8x10 canvases and the granchildren each painted their own self-portraits. They turned out great!
