Ok, so AO and GG came for supper...
After AO and GG left me and Granny went CRAY-ZAY!!! First, we went to the $ store to buy some *supplies*. I had brought this half finished book that I wanted to finish, and we hadn't even started!!! Y'know those little cloth baby activity books? One page will say, "I can braid!" then it has three strings that you braid? And stuff like that. Any way, A friend of ours gave us a big huge box of fabric once, and that was in it. The pages it already had were, "Button my flowers!" Where you button the flowers to the stem, "I can count up to ten" where there were 10 peices of red ribbon, the first one with one botton sewed on, the next with two, then three... you get the idea. That one was only half finished, so we sewed on half on the red ribbon and most of the buttons,"I can braid", and one with a bunny wearing a bow tie you had to tie up. Me and Granny added eyes for the bunny, whiskers for the bunny and a tail.
Then me and Granny got creative and added some pages of our own! "Zip the tent" We made a tent out of an old cloth then added a zipper so that it could open and close, we also sewed on some green fabric to look like trees. "weave a quilt" Where Granny cut up strips of different colours of felt and sewed them to the page then you fold them over and under, over and under etc...And the last one we made, (my fave!) a velcro X's and O's game! We have six orange felt circles, attached to tiny peices of velcro, and 6 blue felt squares attached to velcro. Then a 3 by 3 grid with a peice of velcro in each spot. (we added extra velcro so we could have extra peices...) After that, we surged the whole thing together and we were done!
The next day, we woke up and played music until it was time to go. We went to 'Mineral world' to buy some little starfish for the kids, then out to a Greek place for lunch..... MMMMMMM. Me wuv gweek food... After lunch we went to the airport.
Then I came home.
