twin1 and twin2

The weather has been beautiful and the twins had a great time playing outside yesterday and today. Yesterday they walked in our tiny woods with Aunt E. Twin2 was a little nervous. “Look out for monsters!” she said. Aunt E asked if there were monsters and she said emphatically, “No!” After a while, she announced, […]

dresses for the twins

While the twins were visiting this week, I made a couple of dresses for them. My dear friend Laurie gave me a stack of little girl fabric and some patterns that she could no longer use, as her granddaughter, all of seven years of age, declared herself too grown up for those prints. 🙂 I […]

walking through the garden

We took a walk / ride through the garden this morning. It looks beautiful. Orange is my least favorite color, but there are some totally beautiful orange daylilies. Like ‘South Seas.’ The girls walked through a lot of the east front yard, but decided they had gone far enough on their own steam. So they […]

dishwashers and pizza makers

Our older son, his wife, and their family arrived at midnight Friday for a week’s visit. We are so happy to have them home! The parents and Sissy went to bed and the twins stayed up with Pa and Ma. They were too excited to go straight to bed! So they washed dishes for grandma. […]

We traveled east to be with our second daughter for her senior photography show. She graduates in May! Anyone have a job for a fledgling photographer? We celebrated a birthday with DD#1. And we got to visit with the grands! Swim time with Grandpa. Aunt and niece had a good time together. Took lots of […]
