Fun with sidewalk chalk

The weather has been really nice lately. When we get home in the afternoon Austin has been getting the chance to play outside before we eat dinner. Friday he got out his sidewalk chalk and we went to town drawing on the driveway. We had so much fun. I think we spent a lot of the time just laughing at each other! Some of the things he was drawing had me cracking up. He has such an imagination lately, I really don't know where he gets it from.


Abigail wasn't interested in the sidewalk chalk. Of course, she probably would have put it in her mouth if she were. She was content to roam around the yard and check things out!

I had Austin lay down on the ground so I could trace him. He thought he should have some eyes, a nose and a mouth when I was all done!

Then it was his turn to trace me. I'm sure that was a sight, me laying on the driveway. At least I look skinny, even if I'm incomplete!


Other things we drew included a king with a crown, a dragon, a frog and Austin & Abigail's names with stick figures next to them!

I love side walk chalk!!! Austin you did a great job coming up with all sorts of fun things to draw. I also don't blame Abigail for wanting to explore the yard (is this the first nice weather to be outside with her new walking skills?) Send some warm weather up to Michigan please.
