Spring Break Family Fun

 We had all our family here this past week.  It was amazing to have all 19 of us together.  We have 2 grandkids and 19 great grandkids.  Doesn't seem possible.  The first day was just two greats so we sketched.  After everyone got here the kids were mostly outside.  They had their Easter Egg hunt on Tuesday I think.  Went to the playground by the firehouse.  Played disc golf with Uncle Larry.  We had New Mexico food and brisket.  So wonderful to see all the kiddos.  We hadn't seen the last two since we aren't traveling.

We did sketch a little with the the first bunch.  I post my three first and then the kids.  They tried to do items from the Scavenger Hunt with me.

For Scavenger Hunt 187 https://creativespark.art/threads/scavenger-hunt-from-life-187-apr-3-apr-15.8897/



Number 1 cup - my Christmas cup this year.  We think the 4 on it means aisle 4.  I want to sketch it in pastel.  Maybe one day.  In the new Ohuhu smaller sketchbook with Ohuhu pens and watercolor.
Number 2 useful - a plastic basket to hold brochures at PT In the larger Ohuhu Mix Mecia sketchbook with Micron 03 and watercolors.
Number 3 vehicle - in the Ohuhu Mix Media sketchbook with Micron 03 at PT... oh the perspective.  Front and back not too bad.  Middle is ???

David sketched one of my Kachina dolls in colored pencil.


 

Christy sketched on paper from the Little Fingers sketchbook.

Lucas sketched in the Little Fingers sketchbook.  He draws really well.  He did some others but they weren't from life.  The hanging basket was a good challenge.


 

Owen sketched in a Fabriano Masters Touch watercolor sketchbook and tore the pages out to put on the fridge. He did the cutest chicken but it is so light yellow that it wouldn't show in the scan. 

They did some chalk art outside, too.

 Anyway lots of fun.  The house is sooooo quiet now.
