I sure hope that your May has kicked off to a good start. The heat is settling in quick around our parts. We've kicked off May with watching our softball girls win the District. Next week we start another round of ball. It's so much fun to watch these girls and especially our girl, Mallory. She plays centerfield. We were so proud of both teams that played against each other. They all, hand in hand gathered together as one of our girls prayed for the game and also for one of our young men that was in a horrific car accident and fighting. His name is Kaden if you can think to lift him up to our Lord. I had the opportunity recently to speak to a group of women at a ladies luncheon event at a local church. Oh we had so much fun. I wished I had gotten pictures of the beautiful decorations. We had a TEA PARTY and we each kept the cup that we drank out of it. Isn't she just lovely? Easter has come and gone but we sure have a great time with family. We gather each...
I had all four of my grands Friday and we had a Valentine craft day, made heart shaped brownies and had ice cream and well, done a little bit of everything! The great thing was that we were not on a time schedule, if we felt like brushing our hair we did and if we didn't...oh well! If we got dirty playing and chocolate on us from the brownies we didn't care! All that will wash out but the memories will be there forever! Grands are 7, 5, 4, & 8 months old. Needless to say...this NANA fell asleep on the couch after everyone went home!!!!
Let the crafts begin!
These two cousins are 20 months apart. One minute they loved each other and the next minute...well, lets just say they would have disagreements!
The oldest grandchild is 7 and such a little mama to the others.
Yeah, we had glue everywhere! But nothing that GoGone want take off! Love that stuff!
While some of the crafts are drying it is time for a break! A pillar fight breaks out with two of grands....YEP, my pillars off my couch!
The baby is so excited just watching them play!
This little craft was dry so we had to get a picture! Even the baby had her own craft!

I think I have swept up enough of beads and etc. to have another day of crafts!

It is time to make the brownies!!!!
Everybody had to have a part in the brownie making. One cracked the eggs, one added oil and water and one had to do the mixing!
And then the fun part began!!!!! LICKING THE BEATER...AND THE SPOON!
All I know is THANK the Lord for Spray and Wash!
Time for a little outside play!
And the 4 year old granddaughter has managed to have a stray dog come to her house so she too found her way to Nana's!
Her name is Rapunzel by the way!
Of course Mom and Dad are hoping Rapunzel's owners will claim her soon!
This little one doesn't care what any of them of them are doing. She is just before going to sleep! And she does and sleeps for one hour "just a swinging".
Time for more crafts!
Time for a picnic on the porch!
Time to show off some crafts and have brownies and ice cream.
I hope you have enjoyed our Valentine Craft day with us. We sure had lots of fun!
It is the little things in life that bring the greatest pleasure!
Hugs and blessings,
Cindy

What a fun day you created for your adorable little ones! I think Rapunzel is happy...
ReplyDeleteI like your brownie pan, Cindy!
Hugs, Beth
Looks like so much fun! Thank you for sharing. Love you bunches! Stephanie Crawford
ReplyDeleteYour grands are adorable! Looks like so much fun. Hopefully one day I will have grands!
ReplyDeleteThat really looked like so much fun. I'll be glad when my Macey is a little older and we can cook and garden together. Rapunzel looks a little thin. Her owners may not ever come get her. Animal Control will come get her and if she is adoptable (and she certainly seems to be) they will get her healthy and find her a home. Unless you are just going to adopt her. I would. I have four and three were strays that adopted me!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful grandchildren! Loved seeing your fun day with them. And I understood your nap after they went home! Been there - done that myself!
