Last weekend three out of our five grandchildren stayed with us for a sleepover. Although my picture taking was limited I did manage to grab a few photos in between making happy memories.
While the girls were upstairs Noah spent some time with his Grandpa. I missed the shot of them both holding up the newspaper. Noah reading the funnies right next to Grandpa reading the sports. It was priceless.
We all had a nice dinner of yummy tacos. Everyone helped to prepare it.
Then it was time to snuggle up and enjoy a movie. It sounds simple, but we thought it was Fab-u-lous!
It the morning it was bath time and Noah brought his goggles for under water adventures in the jetted tub.
We all enjoyed a nice breakfast, of cereal fruit, and a variety of drinks. Including strawberry milk! I bet you didn’t know you could get milk from a strawberry, giggle.
Instead of making a craft this time we decided to bake cookies. Soy nut butter cookies ( the recipes is HERE) and snickerdoodles.
We all had a wonderful time. We did have one accident. Other than that it was perfect!
Now it’s time for the weekend again, where did the week go?
This weekend I’ll be making happy memories with my sweet hubby. What will you be doing?
New Avon out today!

The bathtub picture is so cute! We use to have a grandma in town when my kids were young and we slept over a lot! Made me remember good times…thanks!

You take great photos. I lost both grandmothers years ago so now all I have are memories.

Great pictures! How great that you got to have them all spend the night. My mom would do anything to have a night like this with her grandkids!

I miss the grandkids’ sleepovers! Ours have moved away and most are too old now. It was the most fun!

This weekend it will be me doing the babysitting, again. I have my doubts there will be any picture-taking moments, since the baby keeps me hoppin’, and I can pretty much guarantee that capturing the moments would make a lousy photo… unless it was for a copy of a horror magazine… or, entered into the evidence file, when they burn me at the stake!

Looks like a lot of fun at Grandma’s. Cookies look yummy. Sorry about the Jim Shore Angel. Hopefully it glued together for you.

I was drawn to your “what happens at grandma’s stays at grandma’s” My daughter is two and I think this will be her motto once she gets old enough. I found you through sassy sites link party. I’m your newest follower. Stop by http://www.thenymelrosefamily.blogspot.com and check me out.

What a lovely time you had with the grandchildren, and super photos for us to look at . Aren’t grandchildren the best thing in the world ?! Such blessings. Loved the “what happens …. ” quote at the beginning! Hugs my friend .

This was so much fun, I know your grandkids had such a good time. We do enjoy our grands don’t we? Saw this on Heidi’s Country Homemaker Blog that she is allowing me to co host.
Have a great weekend!

Sweet grandma’s post. But as I was going through it, I wondered who wrote it. You are NOT old enough to have all those grandchildren

Fun, fun, fun! I love the goggles for underwater adventure. I can see the newspaper pic even though you missed it.l We had one granddaughter sleep over last night. We played a game called fast track and then watched a Robin Hood BBC series (2 episodes) and played Solitare on the Ipad. I stitched on a bit of embroidery between Solitaire turns. Grnadies are the best! I grew up on Strawberry milk. Mom always bought it because we were not chocolate milk lovers. Sure hope the little lady can get put back together.
Hugs,
Jann

haha That angel looks like she’s saying, “Whatever! It’s no big deal.” Looks like the kids have a ball at your house! Your photos are fantastic.

What a great post Katharine!
I am sorry that your lil’ heartwood creek angel had to take one for the team, but it was certainly worth her sacrifice. The kids are adorable. It looks like they had the time of their lives, and Grandma and Grandpa did too. You should consider linking up to A Rural Journal’s Your Sunday Best photo hop here- http://www.aruraljournal.com/2012/02/your-sunday-best-and-giveaway-winner.html. You are a really good photographer and the shot of Noah in the bubbles and goggles is out of this world cute.

Aw, she can be glued. Just think of the memories when you spy that crack in her dress.
Looks like it was a blast–for all!

It only took me 35 minutes to realize where I could click to leave a comment!!
I’m so dense, I am lucky I’m on the computer at all. I would love to have a
weekend with grandchildren, I’ve got to get my daughter and SIL to get with the
program though! How nice for all of you. Hey, we had tacos last night!
I see you have Toki’s photo on your blog roll, isn’t he big? You should see the
puppy picture of him, he’s knocking people down now if he likes you he wants to jump on top of you!!
Hugs,
Susan
