Birthday Girls !

Posted in The Living Room

Okay, I guess this is somewhat old news, but some of you have been asking about the birthday cake pics. In late April, we celebrated both girls' birthdays at the same party! Ginny asked for a pink princess castle cake. Now, keep in mind, I have no idea how to make a cake like this! (Oh, Amanda! Where where you?) The bottom was three small layers and the top was three small layers. I thought it might topple over before I got it frosted, but we made it!


I was only going to make one cake for both girls, but before the big day we were driving down the road. Grace was looking at the cars, trucks, and a train passing by. Ginny informed me that  Grace wanted a train cake! And I knew she was right!
You can't see the writing, but it says, "Woo! Woo! Grace is two!"



It was a great day! Somehow, even making two cakes, I  was done long before the guests came. Ginny couldn't wait to eat!
 




After presents, the kids went to the bak yard to try out the new bug catchers.
Afterglow?

PapawGranny

Posted in The Living Room

We had such a great time with Gary's folks this week!
Grace called them  "papawgranny" so I guess they're both one person???
Anyway, the kids especially had a great time!!! And aren't grandparents great!!
The girls followed them around with toys,  homemade pictures, and Grace never missed a chance to play "A,C,C's" puzzle with Granny.
Ok, so I didn't PLAN anything educational this week, but the girls seemed to learn a lot -- where water goes when it rains, all about bees, fish, that bird in the tree, etc. We did a lot of things together, but just being together is priceless.
We got in the car on Monday morning to go to the store. Grace says, "Papawgranny there?" She still is talking about them!
So come back soon Papaw and Granny.! We love you
!
