Celebrate the Sun


We love to celebrate, whether its big look-forward-to-all-year-long days like birthdays and Halloween or smaller lesser known days like summer solstice or National Banana Split Day. Spending time together, having fun, good eats, good times... This weekend we spent time together enjoying the longest day of the year with a late afternoon mini hike along the bay.  It also involved gathering little bits of nature for our solstice project:
Em was particularly thrilled with finding the teeny crab leg.  We got to work arranging the treasures on the sun photo paper:
Two minutes outside, and the sun takes the photo onto the paper for us:
The magic of the paper inspired all sorts of creative arrangements:
Punched some holes, wove some ribbon, and we had ourselves a fine summer sun photo banner to hang in the tree.  This was a super easy and fun project, we hope to do it again next year.
