Painting A Pumpkin!

Maddy and I had a special fun day on Sunday! 
We had an opportunity to join in a Family Art Day sponsored by the
local hearing impaired school-age support group.




The group provides activities for various ages throughout the year.  
Since there are not very many students at Maddy's school with an impairment and hearing aid, the activities provide a chance for Maddy to see other students like her.

Anywhoooo -- it was a Family Art Day -- painting pumpkins! 




So much fun!!
 
The art teacher had a huge variety of pumpkin-art projects --
pumpkins with moustaches, pumpkins with spider webs and paints of all kinds.



Maddy decided to paint her pumpkin white and
 then do a stencil of a black horse! 
 
Turned out fabulous!!
