Lily

Lily is here for a few days! We enjoy each of the grandchildren! It's so fun to get to know each of them! We have a few plans for tomorrow, coloring a giant poster, playing on the playground, going for lunch and maybe a movie! Alex is up next to come for a few days on Thursday! Picture is from the twins birthday party! Blessings!

pizza

I'm making homemade pizza tonight! We have another granddaughter with us for a few days! We spent the afternoon with Auntie Erika in Siren. Shopping, eating and playing at the playground/lake! Olivia didn't have her suit with, so Mimi says"Oh just go in with your clothes on and we will deal with it later." Spoken like a grandma!!!! I had a jacket in the truck and Grandpa's jacket was in the truck, so I wrapped her in my jacket and sat her on Grandpa's to come home so her car seat didn't get too wet! We had fun!

breakfast muffins

I was checking out my favorite sites and came across a wonderful recipe from thepioneerwoman.com! Check it out, breakfast muffins that tastes like donuts, I'm in Heaven!!!! I will make them maybe tomorrow and post some pics! Today is our last day with Shealyn! We have gone bowling, Grandpa and her went fishing, she and I went painting at the Potter's Shed! It's been busy. I had a friend tell me it's too much, just do things outside around the house - BORING!!!!!! We want to have fun with the kids, we do things outside around the house, but also other things! We only get this one chance to be part of their lives and we intend to make the most of the short time we have with them! Well, that's all from here! If you would happen to come for a visit, we will do the most we can with you in the short time we have with you also! LOL!!! Blessings!

birthday

Yesterday we went to the cities to celebrate the twins' birthday, the girls turned 7!!! We had a great time with everyone! We got them each an outfit for their American girl dolls, an outfit for them to wear for the rest of summer or back to school, and a coloring book called "Rosie Flo's coloring book" It such a cool book for kids! Check it out at Amazon! So, I haven't done any cooking for a few days. We brought Shealyn(the 10 yr old) back with us for a few days! We went bowling today, I haven't bowled in 20 yrs and had fun! Tomorrow we are thinking about going to the "Potter's Shed" for a day of mosaic and eating! Wish us luck! Blessings!
