Eyes, bodies, wings, toes and a footprint?


Eyes painted today!
All five dinosaurs have eyes now.
A much quieter day of steady working.
I asked Pastor to not give us help today from the youth.
I knew we just had a few things to do,


Each one of the creatures got some final touches added.
The scope of the work was a lot more than I thought.
We had several toes to paint on each of the creatures.
We also touched up horns and bodies that needed some tweaking.
The biggest project was the Pterodactyl wings.
The kids painted the tablecloths yesterday and we carefully put them together on the armature.
The wings measure about 15 ft total.
The body will hang below.
The whole bird will be in the cafe area.



We also had a request from one of the pastors for a 5'9" Sauropod footprint.
Once the foamboard arrived, we set to work as I knew it would take awhile.
Ella Rose did an excellent job on it, happily painting away!



I love my husband, but I seem to always look drunk in photos he takes.



Ever the comedian, Chris put sunglasses on the long neck while I was working on it.
At least he thought it was funny.
My sense of humor was long gone after a long day.
We spent from 8:30-5:30 at the church today detailing.

This week is over.
The dinosaurs, walls, backdrops, props, are all done!
I am toast tonight.
I'm sure a good nights rest, and I'll be back again tomorrow.
I pray the children are as excited as I am!

Eyes, bodies, wings, toes, and a footprint?
