Two years ago I started a new weekend activity. I was asked to face paint at the TCU home games in the area known as Frog Alley. Well...I had never really face painted before, but my friends did a little tutoring, I practiced for a while and decided to give it a try. It was so much fun!
So, Saturday afternoons during TCU football season, I gather my bag of paints and head to Ft. Worth. The kids are so cute and they don't realize that I have very little talent. All they know is that they have some paint on their faces and they are happy! All ages come and sit on the stool. The boys want footballs, girls want butterflies, they all want TCU painted in the design. Parents and grandparents stand in line with the kids and help keep them still and calm. I have done three week old babies and grandmothers--all Horned Frog fans!
This Saturday is homecoming and the weather is expected to be great, so I predict our troupe will be very busy. Looks like an afternoon of sitting in one place for two hours and making kids smile. I love it!
