The last few days, no baking, but lots of Grammy-time with our granddaughter, Maddie. Her first dance recital and I flew across the country to see her make her debut. A big smile, sparkling eyes, and a personality that warms our heart--the best perks of being a Grammy.
I fly home tomorrow (tears in my eyes) but I will be baking again on Tuesday and planning on the end of July when both Ari and Maddie will be at our home--we're calling the week Camp Mimi's and you'll get to see a lot of kitchen time, crafts, and plenty of adventures that two 4 year olds can pack in a day! XOXO
Maddie is adorable. I am sure she can't wait to visit you soon.
ReplyDeleteKirsten, I'm keeping everyone in my prayers with these horrible fires; stay safe. XOXO
DeleteOh Susan....what wonderful photos! I have received similar photos, in the mail, of my granddaughters' recital. I know you are excited to have them home for a visit.....

Martha Ellen, It is the best!! They both just bring out the best in me and they love baking and crafts...what more could I ask for:-D
DeleteMaddie is just gorgeous. I bet the children can't wait for Camp Mimi's - what wonderful memories they will have of time spent with their Grammy. x
ReplyDeleteOne of their projects will be a handmade scrape book of the week--I'm even having them take their own photos so they can have the memory with them to look back on. <3
DeleteWhat a doll! I'm sure Camp Mimi's will be a big hit with Maddie and Ari!
ReplyDeletePersonally, I have one grand-cat and one grand-bird! No grandkids on the horizon for me.

Both my girls didn't get married until they were in their 30s and I never thought I'd be a Grammy, but boy do I love the experience!
DeleteMy daughter is 29. Still time if she changes her mind.
DeleteShe and her boyfriend are just buying their 1st home. We plan to help them move this weekend!

Maddie is such poppet! Camp Mimi sounds such fun...are there any spaces left? I promise to behave myself! Have a wonderful time.x
ReplyDeleteBeing careful what you wish for! I'm sure there will be times I'm going to wish for "Camp Counselors" to help out--4 years old's can be quite a handful;-)
Deleteoh goodness susan, what a little love! how exciting your camp plans sound. four is such a precious age. i miss having a little one around!
ReplyDeleteLori ann, Yes, they do keep a smile on my face and definitely on my toes!
DeleteMaddie is too cute! She's adorable!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteShe's a little firecracker...as if you couldn't tell from these photos. I would have given anything to be as daring as she is. XOXO
