It's the Little Things.... like a splash of COLOR!

Well, color me HAPPY. That's what I am these days with summertime fun and my BOYS.

Happy, we are.
And color, we have...

Check out this fun colorful summer project: (Again), thanks, Pinterest!

I found a website that will convert any picture into a coloring sheet. (How fun is that?!)

Sounded like a good activity for a movie night... a movie, a snack, and an opportunity to color ourselves... HAPPY:

Welllllll, color us HAPPY!

Ready to release his inner artist!

Our masterpieces!!

 Next, colorful activity:

This was a Chelsea project. Rummaging through some old "junk," we came across a couple of these beauties:

 Boring, right?!

So, I splashed on a little color, threw on a few dots, anddddd VOILA:

 Happiness was BORN (via) plastic chairs.

Good news: This project was Max-approved. :)

 And what's a cute Max to do while his Mama is creating happy chairs?

Why, throw a few dots, splats, and splashes of color on the sidewalk, himself:

 Best sidewalk paint recipe evvvvva!! (1 cup of cornstarch, 1 cup of water, & the food coloring of your choice). We painted with this sidewalk paint a couple of times last summer. His artwork has definitely matured...

Happy paint, happy feet, happy people. :)

These two color my world, paint or no paint. So thankful for happy summer days:

Speaking of color and happiness, just you stay tuned, the Matamoros fam has LOTS of colorful good times coming up this week (We're pretty excited). Let the good times roll, and happy summer!
