We were outside the other day, blowing bubbles and making chalk drawings (see previous post) and I had the idea to try to do one of THOSE pics. You know like the ones where someone draws a scene with the chalk and then puts a kid in it? Yeah, that.
And I just want to warn you all right now, it’s NOT good. But I’m still going to share it with you anyway. Because it kinda makes me laugh and I think it will you too.
First of all, I drew the picture in about one minute. And I had K lay down in whatever she was wearing, which was not “rain appropriate”.
Also, we have a very old driveway here, it’s not nice, clean cement (although Tim did power wash it recently), and it has cracks.
Lastly, how are you supposed to pretend to be holding an umbrella while laying on your back? Especially when you are two?
So, I tried. And we may try again, with more forethought. Surely “practice makes at least better than this”, right?
It’s cute. And can’t wait to see more practice. 🙂
I tried to do one of these with balloons. I also had the “how do you hold something that does not exist” issue.
Aw, I think it’s cute!
I think it’s pretty good!!
It doesn’t need to be perfect to be super cute! 🙂
I love them! The last one is especially great–she’s laughing at how silly you are. 😉
Awwww. I like them!!
And her outfit is adorable!
Well, you succeeded in making me laugh out loud! This is so cute! 🙂
I think it was a very successful shot judging by the smile on her face!

It’s much better than you make it sound and pretty cute.

I think it’s adorable. And real. You’ll love looking back on this.
Oh, it’s sweet! So, so very sweet! Love!
