12 already

Sweet granddaughter turned 12 today.   On the left with a great cake made by Publix.  Raspberry jam in between 4 layers with cream cheese frosting. 

On the right she is at Lewis Ginter with sister and her great grandmother at around the age of three. 

She liked those sunglasses,

where did the time go?   Picture enlarges some when clicked on

Adalyns riding lesson

Adalyn is taking riding lessons.  Girl loves horses.  I remember at one time she would not get even close to one.  Now all she talks about is horses.
Steve and I so enjoyed watching her.  She is still little and needs help with the saddle and other things that go with riding a horse like the grooming that's expected after wards.  She is too little to be expected to take care of that by herself.  A few more years for that.  Right now she is getting used to riding and loves it!

Adalyn Birthday on Saturday and a Snowy Sunday

First we had a happy family day birthday for Adalyn who is 7 on Saturday.
Today on Sunday she had fun at Chucky cheese with a few friends starting at 9 o'clock a.m. and the snow started.

She is making a wish and thinking about it.


Oh yes and we had to sing Happy Birthday

Their tree was put up early and here she is showing me what she made for it.

Today Sunday
Still snowing out and it is pretty.  I was out in it earlier on my trip to Bass Pro Shops. Just a little then at 11:30 a.m..


nice fire to warm inside

around 12:15

After running by the grocery store to pick up a few groceries.  There was much more and icy.

Can't believe how fast and hard this stuff came down.

 Such a relaxing view

First day

A few pics of Adalyn's first day of first grade.  She is such a sweet little thing and all smiles ready to leave at 7a.m.
She loves her doggy and he is watching out for her.

Star is funny, he just watches when he is out on the steps.

Have a great day sweetie.

Adalyn

Adalyn turned 6 on Friday.  Her celebration was held today.   She wanted everything emoji but at the last minute switched her cake to snowflakes.  My favorite too.   Fitting I see the emoji with tears.  I just noticed that.
Happy Birthday sweetie pie.

Adalyn Graduation Day

There was a graduation party at Adalyns school and I am sharing a few hi lites of the event.
Waiting patiently for sister - our little jabber jaws,  she just loves to chit chat.

while waiting - Genevieve wanted to take a few pictures and here is one of grass and 
this one genevieve focused on the happy running feet.  

Here they come

Adalyn ( long brown hair in 2nd row)  is looking for her Mom and other familiar faces




I didn't get the actual shot of her getting her certificate but took movie clip instead


below is what the teacher was reading as she walked to shake hands with teachers


Here she comes



Little sisters who love each other very much

lil sweeties

next giving Opa a hug and her mommy

hot dogs, pretzels and baked beans with cupcakes
You see that Opa makes sure he gets in line.




Skipwith Academy Montessori School - Fine school I must say

One of her most favorite animals


there are vegetable gardens the  children tend to


Another picture taken by Genevieve - I guess this is just a little peek into what she sees in her world day to day.  Not sure what type of photographer she will be but she seems to like  pictures of shoes.

porch table

Getting things ready to put on the porch now.  I  need to get a sisal type rug for the porch.  I also love the rugs that have large floral flowers that look like needlepoint.  In the process selecting a fan,  as the ceiling fan on porch has a broken fan blade and it's ready to be replaced.   Every thing seems like it needs to be replaced all at once.  

A friend of mine gave me a vintage table that I am painting white,  it's a shiny white, but it's what I have and I am not going out to spend anymore than I have too.  I may do some work with some lace on top for a touch of whimsy.  Not sure yet as to what,  maybe some lace decal.



Picture of grand daughter with a pom pom dog that she helped make at her day school.   So darned cute.


It has marble eyes

I think I will get some yarn and make a few and put in a basket,  so cute.

Office visit

Adalyn on a visit with us to Opas office at Christmas time after seeing the pretty Christmas lights downtown.
 She enjoyed sitting at the desk in an Itech hat with a football.   We had to tell her it was time to go home in order for her to remove herself from the chair.  She seems to really enjoy an office invironment.

Deep in thought here



This barometer thingy is something she was fixated on


She did find the candy and that certainly put a smile on her face

Adalyn is 4

Grand daughter Adalyn had a birthday on Saturday.   She loves Elsa of  Disney's "Frozen"  .  I guess I have that correct,  I can't keep up with what the little ones follow these days.

The little snowflakes are rings and there is an ornament that moves around of "Elsa" Adalyns favorite.



She had to dress in her dress with Elsa necklace

Opa gave her a cash register and she and Genevieve love that.

dad reading her card



With Genevieve ,  it's all about the cake.
She and Adalyn are sweeties.
Sweet Genevieve woke up today with ear infection and stomach flu.   Here we all go again.
What a cold and stomach season for everyone this year.
