My Little Artists...

This is the scene at my house almost every day after school... Jackson and Josh LOVE to color, cut, tape, glue, etc. They spend hours at the table creating dinosaurs, robots, animals, etc. They rarely play with their toys anymore because they'd rather be doing art or reading. I am amazed both at their creativity and their love for art because that did NOT come from mommy! They must've inherited that from the Morrill side because the Barraclough side is far from creative and talented when it comes to art. I have stacks and stacks of artwork and creations each day all over my house. I love watching their imaginations go wild!

Here's Joshy hard at work...

Jackson hard at work...

Hahaha, remember when I tried to teach you how to draw?!?! Brought back such funny memories. Good thing our kids get half of our husbands genetics, right? I figure if I am lucky maybe they will get three quarters Dan and one quarter of me ;op So cute that they love to do that. . . Shad likes ripping things up. . .

What smart and talented boys you have! Of course, given their heritage it's no surprise that they are intelligent, motivated and highly creative! OK, maybe it's the Morrill influence. Sure do miss them.....

Mikaela-YES you tried to teach me how to draw a horse! Hahahaha, I sure was pathetic huh?

Dad-I'd like to claim it's the Barraclough genes but, we have to be honest right? :)
