The Great Fruit Draw-Off

Here's what happens when you're forced to wait outside for an hour while someone appraises your house. In an attempt to entertain the kids we began a drawing contest. It was Allie versus Mom with Khursten as the judge. Khursten called out a piece of fruit and we both gave it our best attempt.

Mom's Contest Entries
Khursten and Allie told me I was the best artist in the whole, wide world. Ahhhh... kids are so easy to impress. Maybe I should take them to a museum and show them what good art really is. Nah! I like that they think I'm great. (Audrey helped me with the apple) When we were all through, the girls decided it looked like a delicious picnic so Allie drew an ant to eat it all up)
Allie's Contest Entries
You may note a few additional pieces of fruit that weren't even in the contest. She said she was earning extra credit. My favorite are the cherries on the vine. (third item in)
And here we have the Jordan River Temple. (Thrown in for good measure)

I think that Allie won, she is quite the little artist.

Those are my grandgirls. Allie leaves us examples of her creativity everytime she visits.
