Fun with Cassie and Connor

Last week, Heather spent much of a day here while Bob and Andrew were working at their house. We thought it best to keep Cassie and Connor out of the way!

Here's a little of the fun we had.


Cassie made some fun animals out of air dry clay.





She was pretty proud of them!





She had fun blowing these bubbles.











We made this cute necklace.






And we went to Chik-fil-A for lunch.  Connor wasn't interested in our crafts, but he did like lunch.  It was a fun day!

Dear Mari, Cassie has every right to be proud. Her little animals are beautiful. I love the bubbles 🫧 and necklace as well. Connor enjoyed his meal. Wonderful to see these adorable happy children. 😊

Connor, I like Chick Fil A too. I remember those bubbles - from years ago - where did you get them? Cassie is a cutie pie.

Miss Cassie is quite the crafter!!! Isn't just like a man to only be interested in the food. What a cutie pie.

Those children are just precious and I love all the things that Cassie made. I am sure Connor thought you all were nuts making necklaces and animals and such... he wanted boy stuff. I know you enjoyed every minute of it, Mari.

I can't believe how much Cassie and Connor have grown. Cassie is loving the crafts now. Mine have all our grown the craft stage. The older two still come to me when they need supplies for their school craft projects. Have fun!

Gosh Mari! They are so cute!

Cassie certainly should be proud of her animals. She did SUCH a great job! And Connor and I could be great buddies (once he got to know me) because Chick-fil-A is always my favorite place for lunch when we are out and about.

They are just so precious! The time is flying by because they look so much older already. :) They sure get to have lots of fun with Grandma! Cassie did a wonderful job on all of her crafts 😍

I'm so glad to be back around the blogs and come visit you again! Your grandbabies are adorable! I bet they just love coming over and crafting! My Grandbaby is just one, and I still have a 13 year old so its a little different for me but I hope I can learn to Grandma well!

Hi Mari! Connor is such a big boy now! That looks like a really fun craft. It's so great that you do such fun things with your grandchildren. Good memories being made! Have a good week. See you again soon!
