More weekend fun

 We had Alaina and Ruby overnight on Friday. Laura and Aaron dropped them off at my work, and we went and met Bob at Red Robin for supper. We took them there once before and they thought it was a fun place.

This was the cute picture Alaina drew on the back of the kids menu and left for the waiter.

It was a nice night and they had fun playing outside when we got home.  Even though these things are much too small for them, they have fun playing on them.

Did you ever see anyone ride a trike this way?  :)

The next morning they had fun with play-dough.

Then went back outside.

They have great imaginations.  They told me they were harvesting wheat here.

We made a craft:

First, we cut out a face.

Then a dress...

Then traced the dress onto a white cup and cut it out.
Next, take another cup and divide it into 3 sections, then color each section separately. 
Tape the head to the top of the cup, and put the colored cup inside.  Then when you spin it, it looks like a girl with a different dress on for each pattern.

Here's the girls with their paper girls.

The finished product!

After lunch we went to my Dads house.  Laura and Aaron met us there.

We walked out back, where they checked out this old shed, which is something my Dad let us use as a playhouse when we were young.  We used to spend hours out there!

Dad's roses were blooming.  This is one someone gave him when my mom passed away 19 years ago.

Dad was having a good day and was sitting out on the porch when we got there.   Andrew, Heather and Cassie had been there before we got there.

Here's Laura, Dad, Ann, Alaina and Ruby.  We had a nice visit and then the girls went home with their parents.
