Let the Summer Fun Begin!!

Happy First Day of SUMMER!!!
Okay, we actually had already started the Summer fun, but with the temperatures in the high 90’s who could blame us?
The hard work I put into planning our Summer is paying off nicely. You can read about our Intentional Summer Fun here if you haven’t already.
We started out our Summer fun by making tie dye t-shirts. The whole family had fun doing this project! Everyone did a slightly different variation and colors so they all came out VERY cool.
Anxiously waiting!

Mama showing him how it’s done.

And then there was no stopping him!
 
Middle man doing his shirt!
 
Our daughter getting in on the action!

Mom and Dad getting their tie dye groove on! I like to groove!

Or in this case just Dad. I guess no one got a picture of me making mine. *sniff*

Here they are all washed and hanging out to dry.

The hippies have arrived. LOL!

And then we proudly displayed them on our bodies for my son’s 9th birthday party.

Stay tuned for more Summer Fun happenings from the homestead!
Got anything fun planned?
HAVE A FABULOUS DAY!!

  2. Tie-dyed T-shirts...reminds me of the late 60's, when I was in elementary school. Tie-dye was all the rage then...more so for hippie teens, but we little folks got in on the action too.

    I am SO glad it's officially summer. However, that doesn't necessarily mean summer weather for me. It's basically been early spring weather for the past month...prior to that, it was still winter as far as I'm concerned.

    Have a great day.

    Love,
    Patti

  7. Two questions...

    1) Where's the 30 day photo challenge?

    2) Did you wash your shirts first, because if you do the colors really take well.

  12. They look awesome! I am struggling though. I see six shirts on the line and there are only five of you. And the one shirt that caught my eye right away because it was all red is the one that is missing?? What's with that? Don't leave me hanging! Who made the cool red one? :)
