Grammy’s Sweater
Girls’ Night
So, with Beckham away, on his first Father and son’s camp out–Lily decided that she would be needing a girl’s night out. We all agreed.
Even the one boy who got to come.
Naturally, a million pounds of pizza was in order…
and doing girl-type stuff in the backyard that didn’t include monsters, zombies or bad guys. Just swinging and playing house and taking turns being “the mom.”
Then back inside to watch Pocahontas with it’s funny critters…
and magical love songs…
and lots of popcorn.
Next everyone chose their favorite color of toenail polish…
applied by Aunt April–
of course.
This was so much fun that the girls are trying to figure out how to get the guys to leave again someday very soon. It shouldn’t be too hard.
As long as we don’t tell them about the pizza.
The Perfect Model
I asked Miss Chompy if she would let me take some pictures of her wearing the pretty little crocheted headbands that I’d just finished for the shop. She said, “Sure, Drammy.”
So, I ran to get my camera and by the time I came back…well, the Ladybug was ready for our photo session.
Now, why didn’t I think of wearing them that way?
Heh, heh.
On A Winter’s Day
Took a little stroll around the yard with the little Missy this afternoon…you know, just to see how things are going for all the neglected things outside in the cold. It’s been so long.
Periwinkle…in there somewhere…
check.
Faded, pretend chicken, still hanging out under the rosebush…
check.
Strawberries hanging on…
and the silly little Buddah man–just happy to be here. He looks cold though.
The fruit trees are trying to bud–and they shouldn’t be doing that…
not in February.
Cute kitty…
and Nessie are still with us…thank goodness.
Even our music stick is in fine shape in this crazy 22 degree weather.
She lasted longer than I did, this little snow baby of ours. I’m heading in for some Peppermint tea…and a brownie.
I’ll watch from the window on this chilly winter day.
