have you seen these? 
sidewalk CRAYONS.  
they are sidewalk chalk that are super bright.
it makes chalk drawing even more fun.
i highly recommend them.

i got them at wal-mart…$5.

Julie - I love this happy picture! I bought sidewalk chalk yesterday because of it and I don’t have kids. Not sure what I’m going to do with them, but $5! There’s gotta be more than 5 bucks worth of something fun to do with them…Your blog has been a happy discovery for me. Thank you!

Michelle - Your daughter makes me smile! She is so cute.
My 7 year old daughter seems to have similar fashion sense–whatever feels good and makes her happy is what she wants to wear. My husband, who admittedly is bothered sometimes by her outrageous fashion sense, said she looks like a walking crayola box and hence nicknamed her “Crayola”. Of course, she finds this hilarious!
Anyway, after I saw your post about the sidewalk crayons, I had to get them for her as a special treat! Thanks!

Carrie K - greatest picture EVER!!
shes such a sweet kid and a fantastic dresser…the socks are my favorite part!! heeheeheee

julie - i’ve read your blog for awhile. I love it! we actually have your husband’s pancakes almost every weekend! 😉 Just had to come out of lurkerville…that picture is so stinkin ADORABLE! I love all your shots…but this one takes the cake.

Linda@ Restyled Home - That picture brings tears to my eyes, it is so adorable. You are brilliant to do it. Mine would look like a generic stick figure, but I am so inspired I just might copy you anyway. Of course, I will give you full credit…maybe they will think you did the awful drawing!! 🙂
You are such a sweet mum, even if you do yell when you get a migraine. Thank goodness for that, or else I’d just feel bad about myself…!!!!
Cheers,
Linda

gina - I did see those last Thursday a t WalMart… and now I’m going to go back and BUY them.

Tracy - Annie is just a doll, Meg! I look forward every day to seeing what you are going to have on your blog from the day before and sharing in your day to day lives. I love seeing what clothes she throws together! You may just have a future fashionista on your hands! My daughter, when she was young, did the same thing and now she looks like she just stepped out of a magazine and is only 15! She sure didn’t get it from me because I personaly prefer tshirts and jeans any day over dressing up! HA! I guess she got her taste from her friends and from the fashion magazines – which, ironically, she wants to be when she grows up – a fashion designer! Have a great day, Meg! Hugs, Trac~ :o)

Beth - Love that and gotta try that crayon/chalk. Do you have one of those spin-art chalk things from crayola?

emily :] - i lovee sidewalk chalk. is that okay for an eighteen year old? & i’m going out & buying that asap.

Aubrey - that’s cute–you made her dress, didn’t you?

Christy - Annie is so stinkin cute! I always love her outfits.
That chalk looks awesome. I will have to get some. Not pastel like the normal chalk, cool! My son loves to make houses with his chalk.

Margaret - We love sidewalk chalk around here. I may have to go get some of that. My son has a chalkboard wall in his room, and he often uses sidewalk chalk on it.

Sarah - Fantastic!
I love sidewalk chalk 🙂
And i love the self portrait!

Trina McNeilly - These look fabulous.. we love sidewalk chalk.
You lucky thing you… going to U2 in Chicago.. I was suppose to go to that very one but am not now.. it is a very sore spot so I shall leave it at that.
I am with you with the dreaming of getting pulled up on stage….maybe you should pray about it… God will give you the desires of your heart — ha ha!
Have a great week!

Kim - Wish I had a sidewalk!

those dog photos….i can’t believe it’s the same dog!
he is wonderfully goofy.

a thorn among roses - those are cute…and my girlie pies love the more pattern and more colorful look too! well, so do i, for them anyway!

Erin - Meg, I really enjoy scrolling through your blog & looking at your photos. You have such a great eye for detail & composition. Thank you for sharing what you see with us!

erica - ok first of all your little girl dresses EXACTLY how i always imagined my daughter (whenever i have one LOL) will dress! i LOVE little girls with their own style! and second those sidewalk crayons look so cool! i’ll have to try them out, my 2 yr old little boy will love them!

Meredith - She is truly the most photogenic child isn’t she? I’ll be on the look out for those crayons, but I’m not sure that we’ll have them in Australia yet. (We’re usually at least six months behind in K-mart stock)

Kristen - Adorable!

N. - lol! I have a 4.5 year old who dresses very similarly…

Kate - man, i would’ve loved that as a kid, because sidewalk chalk in general is hard to hold, or was that just me? and the crayon shape seems like it’d be easier to grasp. plus the whole brighter colors. i do love me some brightness.
and she has the BEST fashion sense. i love it.
-kate

Wendy - Ooo! I need some of those! I might even let my daughter play with them…
As always, your daughter is adorable!

Joni - What a CUTE photo….LOVE IT! And I miss the days of having kids young enough to get happy about sidewalk chalk…maybe I’ll just go buy ME some! Hehehe! Your little gal has some talent!
XOXO
Joni

Courtney - I totally bought those last week and my kids are working through them FAST. They are so much more interesting than the blah colors that used to be out there. They (Crayola)also have a pack of chalk that has way more colors… like 40 or something… it’s good too! Also, I just made a video with the song “She’s a Rainbow”, so could we be more on the same page? Here’s the vid:

Staci - Cooool! Gonna pick some up tomorrow when I make one of my tri-weekly stops to Target or Walmart 🙂 BTW—Love Waffles new look 🙂 We got our little Westie, Mac, his first cut last week…and when we picked him up…it took a lot of convincing to my little Jake that it REALLY was our Mac!!!!!!

Kat - I love that picture! So adorable!!!

leigh babcock - Wow! She is so cute! I’ll have to get these soon.
Thanks!

MGF - Might have to run to Walmart this evening, thanks for sharing. The normal chalk is dull colors and there are so many here.

Starnes Fam - How fun! Have not seen these, but will check them out. Thanks!

Vera - That picture is great. We HAVE TO get some of those crayons – my girls will FLIP for them!! Thanks!

CherryTreeLane - I love this!

Julia - That’s the cutest picture – her socks are adorable.
I’ve noticed that when someone compliments me on something I instantly say “Walmart $6” or just plain “Target” and nothing else. On Easter a girl at church complimented me on my dress and I just looked at her and said “Target” , nodded my head like “you heard me”, and walked away. It’s like some sort of code. So you saying “Walmart $5” means maybe “Can you believe it? I was just walking by the crayola display and I saw them and I couldn’t leave them there. And only for $5!”

sandy toe - How cute~

Kelly - I think I might need some of these for ME! 🙂
