Gifts for Teachers

On Saturday the family did a lot of shopping and running errands after going to "Jake's Gym" for Christmas. One of the things they shopped for were gift bags for Taryn to decorate for all 13 of her teachers' holiday gifts. Taryn had a great time painting the bags.

Since Taryn was painting... Jake HAD to to! He always wants to do everything she is... only problem is he didn't quite understand the concept of painting only the paper and was not excited about Mommy and Daddy telling him he could not paint all over everything in the house. Here is a glimpse into the scene that occurred with Jake's first time painting.

But once he calmed down he seemed to get it.

This morning Taryn put the finishing touches on her gifts by adding foam stickers to each bag, putting the gifts in, and "scrunching" up the tissue paper all by herself.

She was very proud of her finished project and I think her teachers will love them.
