Jeff and I have had two of my nieces for the past week. We will have them only one more week before rendezvousing in Oklahoma to reunite them with their sisters and mother.
So far we have done the following:
Enjoyed a free lunch at Chik-fil-a courtesy of their "Cow Appreciation" day celebration (it required dressing like a cow).
The chicks have signs that read "Just one of the herd" and "No chickens here!" |
Prepared a nice Friday night table setting and dinner.
Taken in a baseball game (and the requisite hot dogs, salty pretzels, popcorn, and cotton candy).
Enlisted our assistants in gardening and potting activities.
Arranged flowers.
Sculpted "found metal" (i.e., some yard scraps Bekah unearthed) with safety instructions and equipment provided by Uncle Jeff.
Invited some neighbors over for casual Mexican on the back porch
We blog at midnight every other month :-)
ReplyDeleteSounds like you entertained the girls mightily - I love the cow costumes.
How fun! We just said goodbye on Monday to my niece and nephew after two weeks of fun and exhaustion! I'm STILL catching up on our laundry and housework. :) Have fun!
ReplyDeleteFunny...things seem kinda quiet around here. Wonder why??
ReplyDeleteI have been looking forward to your blog entry about the girls coming since Fleda told me you guys were going to keep them during camp. Sounds like you have had fun! Some of us don't juggle it all as well as we should (lol-me! I work full time too!) Hope you enjoy the rest of the week with them.
ReplyDeleteSounds like fun! By the way, pulling images off the Internet is one time saving trick.
