The HANDFUL

It's been a good week! Finally able to go North and see the Bee; celebrated her belated birthday along with LaLa's. It was a whole birthday palooza week and no one minded. She was overjoyed with a Barbie house and a guitar! What fun if you are F.I.V.E. Great memories.



Oh, and let's not forget Birthday donuts for LaLa!

There was also sledding and a trip to our new faavorite Mexican restaurant (maybe even two visits). LOTS of Barbie playing, coloring, singing with guitar accompaniment, game playing and movie watching (current fav is Ferdinand).  And let's not forget there was cake, white cake and cupcakes, there were also cupcakes. Chocolate and vanilla! YUM! We like cake!

She's a HANDFUL today!

 F.I.V.E.

She is five...wow, just wow. She woke to a surprise unicorn table setting. After some gift opening she enjoyed her favorite Eggo waffles for breakfast. Can't get much better for a newly turned five year old. I'm sure the rest of the day will be all about her as it should be when it's your birthday!

In five short years she has added so much to our world. We are thrilled to be able to be a part of her world and watch as she continues to thrive. Her curiousity is something to observe, we love to just see what she comes up with next. Her imagination is topnotch from being a unicorn to a kitty cat (much to my chagrin). She entertains herself with Barbies, farm animals, crayons (the hours she puts into coloring is astounding), gymnastics, stuffed animals, yoga, puzzles, games and so much more! 

As of late she has been all over tackling math with her daddy. She's also spent a fair amount of time in the snow since she does love it and they've had PLENTY! The igloos she and her daddy build are pretty impressive as well. She also took a turn snowboarding off her deck as did her mamma and daddy, seriously! You know you have a lot of snow when you can snowboard off your back deck; that, and a pretty nice slope into your backyard!! In additon she's not bad help when there is scooping to do with her own snow shovel no less. All Northern girls need a snow shovel, amIright?

Well, happy, happy, happy, happy, happy birthday our little BEE! We love you.

The HANDFUL

Our granddaughter, the BEE, is turning FIVE this month. We've been telling her and her cousins she's going to be a whole handful on her next birthday for quite sometime now. So it just seems natural that it would become the name of my weekly prompt for blogging this year.  Start watching for The HANDFUL to make its appearance after her birthday as that will be my weeklyish postings from here on out for 2021.
