too fun! i am now stalking (or following....whatever) that crafty blog. i've been trolling the internet for some fun crafts to do with the kiddos this summer.
looks like you guys had so much fun and i love that you're going to frame the artwork :)

You're a lucky gal, having a house full of artists! Love all those vivid colors :)
