Nana Summer Day Camp #3--Trip to the New 21st Century Library and Beyond

-
Our neighborhood library
closed 3 weeks ago
and reopened in a new location
that had taken 2 years to build.
It is billed as a 21st Century
Library and is very cool!
Today I took the grandchildren.
It was my 3rd day to be at the
library since it opened 3 days ago.  
The children's area had a dress-up
center which was right up Aaron's alley. 


David loved the train center.

Both little guys enjoyed the animal center.
Caleb enjoyed this magnetic counting maze.
There is a wonderful reading area where there is a BEAUTIFUL
 view of the mountains.

Not pictured:
The exciting ride in the elevator
The ice cream treats in the Her Story Cafe.
The actual checking out of books.

When we got home, they enjoyed
one of their favorite activities--drawing.



At the end of the day, we joined
their parents (and Cora) for
some ice cream at a CS
Downtown Ice cream parlor,
Josh and John's.

Aunt Mandy and Cora enjoying
some snuggling and giggling time.

Can't think of anyplace I'd rather be than
hanging out with our sweet family.

Love Present from a Friend

One of my favorite things in the whole wide world is to receive a Love Present . The definition of a Love Present is a gift that someone gives you for no special occasion, but just because. My sweet friend, Claudia, came by the other day with the cutest dishes. She had found them at an antiques store and she said they just looked like me. Don't they make a beautiful display in my kitchen bookshelves? Thank you, Claudia, for the dishes, but most of all for the thought behind the Love Present .

Skippyjon Jones and Kohl's

I'm not sure if I should thank my friend Mindy for letting me know that Kohl's is featuring Skippyjon Jones items in their stores, or whether I should send her the bill for the items I purchased. I actually restrained myself (although all items purchased are not displayed in the picture.) There are many more Skippy Jon Jones items at your local Kohl's. Let me just give Kohl's  and their Kohl's Cares program a shout out. I am so impressed with their commitment to local charities benefitting children. All the items above were $5.00 each with the total proceeds going to charity. "Kohl's Cares thanks you for over a decade of dedication and hundreds of millions of dollars raised.  100% of the net profit from the sale of this item will be donated to support kids' health and education initiatives in communities nationwide. Since 2000, more than $180 million has been raised through our Kohl's Cares cause merchandize program." For more information, vi...

Bluebonnets

Texas Bluebonnets and Spring are synonymous! What a beautiful display of God's beauty! My friend, Lea, gave me a beautiful silver bluebonnet charm created by James Avery . You can see it by clicking the link above. I love wearing it because it reminds me of my roots. I still remember the Bluebonnet Song that I learned in elementary school. Bluebonnets, Bluebonnets, With your coats so blue Your bright eyes are shining In the morning dew. They say you're a dolly Offered for the rain And Texas wears blue Bluebonnets in the Spring. Anyone else sing that song as a child?
