Default Paint party, just in the st. nick of time

Well I finally got around to our second annual paint party for this year. I did santas last year, and decided on some snowmen for this year.
Love the way the grandkids concentrate on their work. I thought they did a really good job.

Merry Christmas, Tom

Thanks Blake, This keeps up, I may have to have them paint my carvings. It is always a lot of fun watching them, and the smiles when they are finished.

They look like they were really into it Tom. What a great way to spend some time with Grandpa. I'm sure they will remember this experience all of their lives.

Super pictures, Tom....I like what Soggy said "They'll remember that for years to come" This is special time with Grandpa and the Snowmen ornaments.

Merry Christmas
