Ava's Puppet Show: "Don't Let The Pigeon Climb The Vine."

How much is Ava like her mother ! Nana and Papa must have watched hundreds of creative productions put on by Aunt Sommer when she was a little girl.    This show was created after school on Tuesday and produced Tuesday evening.  As we watched from the bottom of the steps, the puppets came down from the second floor.  So many of my grandchildren are highly artistic and creative.  You will like Ava's show.

 

First AVA creates all her art work, sits up the chairs and calls everyone to come to her show. 

We wait as the scenes and voices come from upstairs and are lowered on string. 

The vine is growing, the sun is shinning.

Kitty is floating down with her umbrella.

This was the end of the puppet show.   THE END

Good night, I will come again.

First Beauty, Then School, Afterwards Shopping!

Ava had been saving her money for a very long time for a hamster.  It was because she watched the movie BOLT.  And Carson has been dreaming of a skateboard since the tooth fairy forgot to leave one under his pillow.  So today was the big shopping day.

Silly Girls

Today has memories of a very serious day ... 911 when our county was attack by very bad people and many in New York City and Pennsylvania were killed.  But our girls are young and innocent and do not remember ... so they are having fun. 

 

While they try to entertain and make Elijah their student as they play school.   He totally ignores them.

Blakely Is Now A Toddler!

Sydney and Blakely Came For A Visit

Blakely is now 16 months old and walking.

So we had a surprise visit from Syd and Blakely because their Mommy and Daddy had to go to a funeral.   The girls got to visit us and also visit with Elijah, Lily and Rosie.

Of course there was the early morning time on the back deck.

And the girls watched Brother Bear.  Blakely likes to sit exactly like her big sister.
