Fabulous Army Life

We love Austin and have a new favorite summer stop.  Just outside of Zilker park there is a trailer that sells the most scrumptious sno-cones! Amazing options include Cream of Wedding Cake and Tiger's Blood! My traditionalist chose cherry for his sno-cone flavor. A little more adventurous, my oldest chose Cactus Juice! Enjoying the shade and cold treat.

Hubby and I took the boys to a fun art studio in Austin today called "Marmalade Skies." The boys each selected a project and we spent a hot summer afternoon in a cool studio creating art. My oldest boy chose to decoupage a flying cow and the youngest created a portrait of boxer Leo in mosaic tile. Here's to creativity! Selecting tiles for a mosaic project ... creating Leo in art! Painting the puppy shape before adding tiles. Starting the delicate decoupage process. The creation of the flying cow. Leo ~ The Finished Product! The Winged Cow!
