We started by finger painting the state of Texas. We talked about the different cities that Aunt Kim has visited in Texas. Before today, Peter repeatedly said that Texas was the top floor of our house. I'm sure he now has a better grasp of where Texas is - or at least he has a better grasp of how to make a mess with his fingers and paint! :)
Then Peter and Aunt Kim finger painted and colored some of the state symbols - the longhorn, the armadillo, and the bluebonnet.
We ended our morning with BBQ for lunch (at Peter's request - he now associates Papa John with BBQ because he's brought it over several times for dinner). Nothing says "Texas" more than a little brisket, potato salad, and coleslaw.
Danielle wasn't too interested in the festivities - maybe next year. :)
