151/365 Hair Cap

 We washed, blow dried and curled Isla's hair today and it looked beautiful. She really wanted to go in the hot tub but didn't want her beautiful curls to get wet.... Grandma has a solution for almost everything. ;) 

150/365 Sisters

 Playing games on Grandmas phone. Not normally allowed at Grandmas house but I made an exception. Chocolate milk on the other hand is a staple at Grandmas house! 

149/365 Geography Genius

 This 10 year old loves her geography and so discovering G&G's big atlas was a win!

 ...on the deck. As it should be! 

Grandma is looking very tired....not even photoshop could help....

147/365 Hot Tub

They all love the hot tub!

146/365 Working Hard

 She didn't want to use them today but we insisted it had to happen before the hot tub so she reluctantly acquiesced. She managed up and down 3 times. So proud of you! I know this is hard work!!

145/365 Bathing Beauty

 And while Norah and I are busy planting all our flowers, this one is being a bathing beauty!! 

144/365 Gardner

 Norah loves gardening and she planted most of my planters today. I am so thankful for the help but especially thankful for her interest in gardening. The day after this photo I added some dracaena and bacopa and she exclaimed "Grandma you added the "thrillers and the spillers" 

Love this girl!!! 

143/365 Chillaxin'

 This  little one loves the hot tub and it is a real negotiating skill to get her out!

134/365 Mermaid

 We had a perfect little mermaid in the backyard posing for the camera!

133/365 Brownies

 We made brownies today. Isla did most of it from breaking the eggs to scraping the bowl. 

132/365 Calla Lilies

 The colours of my Calla Lilies are spectacular and I am enjoying them so much. Just wish I didn't have to cart them in and out every day. Another week and hopefully we will be past any frost threat. 

131/365 Science

 Having a little fun with vinegar, baking soda and some food colouring. 

130/365 Sour Dough Bread

 I am attempting to learn how to make sour dough bread. The first loaf was pretty good, the next one awful and the third one reasonable.....still lots to learn. 

129/365 Cinnamon Buns

 Made two large batches of these when the kids were home. They each lasted a couple of hours.

121/365 Clip N Climb

 Finally!! Norah and I got to go to Clip N Climb and race to the top. She beat me royally!! The best part was having our cousins there and some parents - there were 8 of us and we almost had the place to ourselves. We had a really fun time - lots of photos and lots of good memories!!
