Oh My! It has been two weeks since the last post! I am sorry but things have been so busy around here. Everyday we go and visit grandma at the nursing home. The girls draw so much attention. The residents love seeing them and are always smiling and waving at the girls. I am impressed by the girls reactions: they smile and wave back. They also talk to them as well. The best day though was when we visited as they were celebrating "Oktoberfest" at the nursing home. They had a little band playing polka's, waltzes, country and ended with a great gospel. It brought back a lot of memories of my mom and her love of that music. I could just picture her there singing and dancing. Yes dancing! The residents were dancing and singing and drinking! Anyways they played the "Chicken Dance" and the girls were invited to come up front and "help" do the chicken dance....they both did it without mommy having to be there. It was priceless. They did great and from the pictures you can tell Abbey was scared but she did it!
After we left the nursing home, it was raining and I promised the girls they could splash in the rain puddles. Well they found the worms and were playing with the worms. I couldn't resist taking the pictures. Ashley even thought it would be fun to eat one!
Then Abbey wanted to eat the worms too.
***Before anybody totally freaks out....please note the rain jackets and the boots. I had them dressed properly for their outdoor play.****
We have a pet in our house now. Her name is Wendy (from Peter Pan). It is a wooly bear caterpillar.
Lienie Our neighborhood Dog!
The girls love this dog. He is name after Lieninkugel beer. Sorry I cannot rotate the pictures.
