Walk Like An Egyptian

As you may recall, last summer we dove into the world of caves and had alot of fun (and shhhhh learned a bunch, but don't tell the kids).  This summer's topic has been selected and it's a good 'un. 

Egypt.

Ancient primarily, but we'll do a little bit of "then and now" to keep it real too.  Today was the 5th day of summer vacation and we had done no Egypting yet, so we were overdue.

A few hours later, after a trip to the library, the thrift store, and Mama's makeup box, we had...

Drag Queens!!!!!!!!!!!

No seriously, we just started out with the black eyeliner and blue eyeshadow... kind of going for this sort of look...

But none of the kids could settle for so little makeup.  I rarely bust out the makeup case, for myself or anyone else, so once they got their hands in there, I couldn't get 'em out. 

Because no self respecting ancient Egyptian would be caught dead without hot pink lipstick...
