Sifting for gold

Pappy sent the kids a surprise.  They found bags of sand with treasures they had to find inside the box.  They sifted for a while and each found several special coins from various countries.  It was fun for them, a neat adventure! Thanks Pappy!

Mac's date day

Image
Mac had his date day with Holly on Friday.  All her pictures involve food...they did alot of eating out!  They started their morning with crepes, then off to paddle board.  After one of them fell in the water....not on purpose.....they came home to shower and then went to one of Mac's favorite places for dinner....then to finish his pottery.  Another great date day for them both!

Breakfast and a tea party

While I took Mac to the city for a doctors appointment, Emily and Holly has a blast making pancakes and having a tea party.  They had to get dressed up and Maggie and Emma had to be there too!  After the tea party Emily got to ride her bike.....and then off to ballet later in the day!  Whew what a day for Holly.......but this is just a normal day for us!

Group date day

Holly likes to do "dates" with the kids.  She usually does something with them together and then they each get a date alone with Holly.  She started her day with the kids with a sweet treat from a local bakery then they were off to paint pottery.  After Mac's basketball camp she took him to swimming, Mac swam while Holly and Emily had ice cream! They had a fun time!

Gifts from Aunt Holly

Holly came last week for a visit and brought along some treasures for the kids from her European adventure.  They just loved their new things and she brought me a beautiful bracelet. Holly had an amazing time and sent the kids postcards from all her stops.  They loved getting them and keeping track of where Holly was!  Thanks Holly for all the treasures.
