Yesterday we had a Grandma's Day. Amy and Carly brought their beautiful little girls to our home for lunch and activities. Amy picked up Papa Murphy's pizza on her way and we put them in the oven to bake. My beautiful granddaughters and their beautiful mothers all gathered around the table to visit and eat. Once lunch was over Blake and Lucy were transformed into exquisite princesses. Thanks to Costco for having a darling trunk filled with not one, not two, but three princess dresses!! (A great purchase if you want to be the FUN Grandma, which is my goal) The girls twirled, danced and giggled until they both toppled over. What a wonderful sight to see them getting along. When they finished dancing our little princesses sat up to the counter and made darling magnet turkeys to put on their fridges. (Of course I forgot to take a picture of the turkeys because I am such a novice at blogging) It was an incredible afternoon with very few preparations. I need to remember to "Keep it Simple' so it is not so daunting to spend time together making memories. I had sent turkey packets to Oklahoma so Cody and Macey could also make these cute turkeys. As soon as we finished with our turkeys, Carrie called and mentioned that they had received their package that day and they had just finished making their turkeys. How fun to think we made the turkeys the same day at the same time, but oh how missed they were at Grandma's house.
I am so thankful for seven healthy and strong grandchildren. How wonderful they make me feel because they seem to love me so much They are certainly my reward for all the years of parenting.
