Last Week With Miss V.....♥️


When Miss V visited last Thursday...

We decided it was craft day...

But first...she asked if she could wear the new dress Papa and I had brought her from Florida...

I said "absolutely!! your Minnie Mouse dress is perfect for doing crafts"

Up we went to put it on...

Then....we got started...

First the Easter window clings...she loves putting these up!

Then...

I told her we were going to make Easter cards...

For her Mommy and her Aunts and Uncles!!

This was welcomed very happily!




Lots of pretty Easterey stickers...

Crayons...

Sparkly stickers...

Worked away like a little artist!!

Can you see her Minnie Mouse dress?? and her Dora band-aid!!





She showed me how her Mom had polished her nails for her!!

Said she wanted to do her toes like Nana...hahaha!!

I said in the summer we will see about that!!




All done!!

Don't they look great!!

Now...

On with one of the new cowls I made her while away...

Looks so cute ♥️

Off for a walk with her Papa...

Up to the park...

Climb...

Slide...

Before lunch...

And a nice long nap....












After her nap...

A nice crispy crunchy apple fits the bill...

Along with her many necklaces!!

And a play with her house and people...

Had a great day...

SO glad to be back with her again...






Here she is with her Auntie Lissa...

The day they all came over...

She looked spectacular in her Minnie Mouse dress!

Hey...

What do you buy a 2 1/2 old???

Why...a Minnie Mouse dress of course!!!






Hope you all had a great weekend, and are enjoying your Monday...

Busy today...still clearing out the cobwebs...cant believe we have already been home for 10 days...

I have a peameal bacon roast for the oven...

Accompanied by some scallopped potatoes, broccolli, and some brussells!

 Have a coffee cake in the oven...

Will have a piece of that around 3pm...yummy!!

Enjoy the rest of your day...

                          Cheers!  :o)

  1. A day in the life of little Vivian. How adorable is she. I bet those Easter cards will be a big hit with everyone. Something to treasure. This was such a cute post, Linda. I'm hanging family photos on the stairs today, just where you come up to the mouse house. It doesn't feel like home without them. Enjoy the start of Spring. Hugs

    1. HI Deb...it was really fun doing them with her...she picked the colours for each person!!
      I know how you feel about your family Deb...very heartwarming ♥️
      tell me...do you miss your house???
      Or...too busy to think about it...

    2. I miss the space but I'm busy making this tiny-dwelling comfortable so I'm not thinking too much about it. Funny enough, Gary is and always was more attached to our old house. I was ready to move long ago but stayed put for the kids. They really liked where we were so I didn't want to disrupt them. I think once the main house is built I will feel very much at home here.
      Hope we get some warmer weather soon. It's below freezing here again.

  3. Miss V is sure growing up isn't she? Crafts are so much fun, I'm always on the lookout for some to do when our grandkids come by. It's a sunny and cold day. It looks so nice through the windows but unless we are in the sun trap area of the garden it is cold and windy.

  10. Love the photos of Miss V and I can see she loves her Minnie Mouse dress.
    She is growing up very quickly. isn't she.
    She draws and creates those Easter cards beautifully.
    Have you bought a first pair of flip flops yet so she can be like Nanna . . . . :)

    1. Hi Eddie....
      She is growing TOO quickly...enjoy Peter while he is still small!!
      She had flipflops last summer...had a hard time navigating with them! hahaha!
      she called them her "toe toes".....I guess cause your toes go in them....♥️

      Delete
    2. haha . . . I should think she might flip flop base over apex if she tripped in flip flops.
      ToeToes ~ how funny. . . . . and because your toes are visible when you have them on may have caused her to say that. . . . :)

    3. I did a post on it last summer...she had them on the wrong feet! So cute!

    4. Yes . . . . I think I remember that now . . . :)

  11. She is a darling indeed.
    I would love that dress..Since Noah came back from Disney..not too long ago..he would love that.
    Look at her nails..eyelashes..
    We just had Lucas..not more than 1/2 hr ago..
    And I feel at such total peace..when I am alone with him..doing French composition♥
    When he will be 15 instead of 9.. he won't be drinking tea doing French comp w/ nana.
    Her little cowl is so sweet:)
    Love doing crafts with the Littles too I do.

  14. Oh how I miss little girls. You know we only have 3 our of our dozen grandkids. And those sweet girls are adults....Don't think they would wear an adorable Mickey Mouse dress. She looks so precious in that. What a sweet grandma you are ~~the cards are adorable and I know those Aunts and Uncles will love them.
    Dinner sounds good too. I'm in leftover mode to empty the frig before we leave Sunday for OR. Sending love and Hugs
