Me and Tinkerbell

Me and Tinkerbell
Written and illustrated by Annaliese
Once upon a time there once lived Anna and Tinkerbell together. They got up and brushed their teeth.
They ate breakfast.
They said while they were eating their lunch, "Yum".





Yarn Dolls

Since we are reading Little House on the Prairie right now, I decided for art today we would make yarn dolls. Here is our finished product.
Ryan played with his a little rough, and the head started to shrink a little.

Sketching nature

The kiddos love this activity. I know we need to do this more often.

Anna and Ryan working on their masterpieces (we don't normally have a bookshelf sitting outside. I had just picked this one up that afternoon and hadn't brought it into the house. They decided it would be a good place to draw.)
This was the object of their study....a squirrel's nest in the tree.
Anna's drawing
Ryan's drawing. The little people are not people they are the squirrels. :)

Anna's portrait of mom

A few weeks ago for art Anna and I took turns drawing portraits of each other. Here is the one she drew of me. I thought she did pretty good. :)
(edited to add) Ok, for your amusement here is the one that I drew of Anna. I am NOT an artist!!! :) So I am a little embarrassed to show this. But maybe it will give you a good laugh! :) Oh and Anna decided to help color in the picture...I think she colored in the lips. I think it would be fun to take art lessons together. I am not good at drawing or painting, but it is something that Anna loves to do, so I think it would be so much fun. Maybe someday...
