face paint or skin dye?

The kids go to "Miss Heidi's" 2 days a week and she helps them with school, it is just a fun way to see someone other than Mom everyday. In order to motivate them last week, she said she would paint thier faces if they got done quick. She used washable markers and they washed off so nicely, so the kids decided to use our washable markers and try it again last night. I think we have a different kind of washable markers, as my children are still displaying faint markings of a clown, spiderman and a puppy on thier skin.

Maybe we will save the facepainting for Miss Heidi to do.
Summer is coming up quick and the kids are so looking forward to it. We are going to have to do some minimal schooling during the summer months to get caught up grade wise, but we are still going to try to make it fun. We have a Scheffer & Davis family reunion in June, so we will be spending some time in the car and we will try to cram as many books on CD in as we can.
Church activities are cutting down to once a month rather than weekly, (except for Midweek and Sunday Services) So we will be able to spend some sweet time hanging out and having fun. We will have a couple of visitors and are looking forward to lots of camping and fishing trips.
Tadd may not be able to join us on all of our excursions, but we will sure try to fit in as many as we can with Dad. We have been so blessed to have a couple of Date nights the last few weeks and it is so good to remember how twitterpaited we are with each other still, even though the business can distract.
We are now back in the bunny breading business agian, as summer has come around. Isaiah and Annecy are so excited to have cute little baby rabbits to cuddle. We are so blessed to have property to do all the things we love to do. The kids love having room to play, as well as a place to put up a pool, have animals, help plant flowers and a garden and it's all fenced in only a couple blocks from town. We can not say enough how God is so great at providing just what we need.
We will try to keep the camera clicking over the summer to capture some of the family firsts, as we are experiencing so much for the first time all over again. Have a blessed week and don't forget He loves you more than you will ever know.
