finger painting and family feud

tuesday was a brave mommy day. after having watched supernanny a couple of weeks in a row, i felt guilty for not doing more fun activities with the kids. so, having found a cheap finger painting kit at target, i decided to brave the mess. and believe me, it was a mess! the kids had so much fun, though, and it was a relatively easy clean up (since the paint was washable, i just threw them into the tub after it was all over). it ended up being more of a hand painting than finger painting, and near the end, zach was making it into a body painting, which prompted the ending of the session!






for those of you who didn't know, my sister, her husband andy, his twin brother joey, his wife kyle, and their little brother adam were selected to be on the family feud. the taping was over the july 4th holiday, and their television premier is coming up september 10. the feud actually flew them out to l.a., and put them up in a hotel for 3 nights. they won 4 games in a row, which means they will be on mon-fri. here in dfw they will be on at 12 noon on the cw channel 33. if you are not here, check your local listings for the family feud to watch them win!! and yes, they won the big money twice! my only claim to fame!!

the vanderveers:
andy, kristin, joey, kyle, and adam
