We are so grateful that your Mima and Papi decided to move here. It’s been so wonderful having them around. (Now we just need to work on getting Granny and Grandpa here too!) They have a really big backyard and they’ve been working hard to make a place we can all enjoy and where you will be able to play.
So far they’ve built some beautiful retaining walls and planted a lot of beautiful flowers – and especially a lot of roses – for us all to enjoy.
They had us over for a Memorial Day barbeque so that we could enjoy the progress. You tested out that new retaining wall with an impressive balancing act. You adore your Mima. She is so good to you and it absolutely shows in the way you adore being around her.
Mama make a Pineapple Ipsidedown cake in an iron skillet for dessert. You were a fan. You love cake.
And here, a few weeks later, we put together a new playhouse for you.
You did a great job helping Papi and Daddy put the pieces together.
And looked super cool while you were at it.
You didn’t hold back when it came to testing out your new abode. You opened and closed that door at least a hundred times. And you absolutely had to make sure the door was closed every time you went in. Apparently you were NOT born in a barn. Good girl!
And that’s a working doorbell! So cool. You thought so too.
Your favorite part of the house? The sink – as soon as Mima filled it with water. You “ate” that water with your spoons for the rest of the evening, making sure you shared with everyone in attendance.
And what’s a summer barbeque without an ice cream cone to top it off. I’ll never get sick of ice cream cone pictures. Mmmm…
