Thankful!

I'm so thankful for my sister-in-law, and her gift of hospitality.  :)  And for her amazing camera to capture all these photos when my camera ran out of batteries!

We had a fun day yesterday at her home.  The older two played, and the youngest two napped.  :)
I saw this craft idea on a blog, and knew I wanted to have the kids try it out.
The kids were just as eager and started painting their egg cartons a rainbow of colors...
 
 
 Tada!
This was the finished product... we set them out to dry and while we waited, we ate lunch & played candy land.  :)
Next came the fun part!  We went on an "adventure hunt" to go and find colorful items in nature to fit in each space.  :)  The cousins filled their cartons with grass, leaves, berries, flowers, & rocks.
And here is what they found - a beautiful rainbow from God's creation!
