We started working early on Andrew's Father's Day box. It takes about a week for them to receive packages and we wanted him to be able to enjoy our gifts for Father's Day. Michael and Mary Ellen are really into finger painting and coloring right now. So we did a few "paintings" for Daddy. As you can see Mary Ellen decided to use the entire jar of red finger paint for her painting. I finally had to take it away from her. She just kept scooping more and more paint on the paper. I think it ended up being about a 1/2 inch thick! Michael was a little more restrained. We also did a paper collage tie. Wish I would have gotten a picture of those. They turned out really cute! It was a neck-tie outline on a paper and they glued different color scraps of paper on the tie and then we cut them out. They did most of it completely by themselves! We also made "Cowboy cookies" and bought a few DVD's and magazines to add. He got the box yesterday and loved it! We really miss him and are looking forward to finally getting him HOME!!
