Aunt Mandy, (James’ little sis), came to watch the kids this past week for a few days while James and I were on his annual staff retreat. Aunt Mandy is a super talented artist and you should check out her work here! She came full of fun crafts for the kids!

Mandy has been a vegan for a few years and so you know it’s love when she not only serves Asher hot dogs, but cuts them up like this!

They made sidewalk chalk!
They made bead bowls!
 |
| made from perler beads |
They made crayon art!
They had so much fun together! Aunt Mandy time is always some of their favorite moments! And our girls have apparently inherited some of her artistic talent! Both girls were entered into the school district’s first art show! We are so proud of them!
