Collecting Lake Rocks



Yesterday I took Sara, Alysa and Hannah to the park to collect some lake rocks to paint. Of course, while we were there we had to throw a few stones in the lake.
It was the perfect day for going to the park. We should have packed a lunch and stayed longer but we had already eaten. We brought home a good amount of smooth round stones, perfect for making ladybugs! The girls spent the afternoon painting their stones. Come to think of it, I don't think they painted ladybugs on any of the rocks.

  2. That sounds like fun. Do you ever make rock stacks and see how high you can stack them?
