face painting at local somerville events

when it comes to face painting lulu can be patient. and still. for the butterfly we waited in line nearly 2 hours. but she was patient (and she took breaks. alex and i took turns waiting.) and when it is her turn, she sits very still. she turns her head as instructed and she doesn't itch her face. and after it is all done, she admires herself endlessly. the first pics are from family fun day and the second is from art beat.

crazy see-sawing with melody



after the girls were done playing in the yard we went inside for dinner. they didn't change their outfits. dave (melody's dad) sat them on pillows so they could reach the table. but they kept slipping. so he used two pants belts to strap them to their chairs so they wouldn't slide off their pillows. yes, we are 'formal' like that.

art beat 2011

art beat is a arts and music festival in davis square. it is a two day event. we went both days. needless to say, lulu enjoyed the music. and as always, face painting is VERY high on her list of
'fabulous things in life'.

lulu and friends





we went out to western mass to visit one of lulu's 'old' friends. sara, lulu, molly and melody have been friends since they were weeks old. and they absolutely love each other....
