It's a girl thing

So last night Kirsten & I waited until all of the little-boy hands were asleep, then in not-so-great lighting we tackled a project we've been wanting to do. We painted a lantern she was given for her birthday from her Aunt Beth & Uncle Brian. She had waited patiently for months for the perfect time. (When I could help and the boys wouldn't get into it.)
For our first time watercoloring the lantern wasn't the easiest medium, but it was so much fun. For all of you girls I do suggest this little project from target. Or even just buy a paper lantern & some watercolors and have at it. That's what had come in the box anyway and you won't have to wait to run out for batteries like we have to. lol
