Gran and Pops

Mark and I had a full weekend of being Gran and Pops to two of the cutest little girls you ever did see!

Granddaughter #2 and her mommy drove up and spent Saturday and Sunday with us so lots of playing went on. Pops is THE best Barbie player ever.

We live on a park (basically our front yard is the park) and there were multiple trips to the park!

She was thrilled with the leaves on the ground!

Simple pleasures!!

She had a pizza picnic for dinner.

Yes, those are Halloween plates.

Once it was dark, we rode around to see all of the neighborhood Halloween

decorations and I was driving so I didn't take any photos.

On Sunday, we all had lunch together at Mark's mom's house and I love watching the two cousins

together!

After lunch, granddaughter #2 and her mommy headed home and

granddaughter #1 came home

with us. Once again, there was

much playing of Barbies.

Right after we moved back into our house,

these two made a whole town,

including a Dollar General, on this thick

floor covering paper. Mark rolled it up

and they got it out again yesterday.

Before dark, they headed over the her favorite 

park in our neighborhood. They have

redesigned it. I think Mark took

some photos but I haven't seen

them.

I had saved pizza from the night before

so she had a quick supper

of cheese pizza (said with an

accent like Peppa Pig).

We were waiting on it to get dark

so that all of the lights in the

neighborhood would be

on.

 

We rode around the neighborhood in the golf cart to look at all of the decorations. She actually had to work up her courage to touch the giant skeleton.

This was her favorite, of course. Barbie and Ken 

were in a Barbie box.

They even had Barbie and Ken on the upper floors and

the lights on their house were pink rather than orange.

I think this one might have been Midge??

Our best news of all is that in April, we will be Gran and Pops to another

little girl. Let me just say that this coming baby is a miracle and

a wonderful surprise! Here granddaughter #2 is holding

the pink balloons and the ultrasound of her baby

sister.
