Last night after she came over we did some coloring in her color book. We both like to color. Then we watched TV for a while before bedtime. This morning she came and crawled into bed with me and spent some time telling me about her dreams. She has extremely long dreams. We spent a little time on Facebook and having breakfast. After getting dressed we started our day.
First off we had to make a delivery to Grampa. He wanted his computer at work. So we packed up his computer and headed to Grampa's store. Lily went in saying, "Delivery, delivery for Grampa Marrs.". She then asked about payment for the delivery. Grampa complied to this request with a chicken leg. Just what Lily wanted.
After leaving Grampa's, we went to Target to get a couple of things. We then stopped off at Merritt's Bakery here in town. We wanted to have a tea party today and decided to get something special for our tea party. Thanks for the great idea Grampa. We made our selections then headed to Turtle Pond. We hadn't been there for a while. It was a great day to be outside. However, the swans, ducks and geese were just laying on the side of the hill soaking up the sunshine. The turtles didn't even make an appearance. They were to busy hibernating still. We did enjoy the swings and even sent a little text to Aunt Charlie telling her how much we missed her. Aunt Charlie responded back to have fun but watch out for the wall (that was where she hurt her knee when she was here in November).
OK, back home we go. While I prepared the food for the tea party Lily got the table set up. We got out one of the tablecloths and some of our napkins. Lily got out tea cups and plates and even set the high chair up for her American Girl doll Missy. (I heard stories today about how Missy got in trouble. She had a big of a 'smart mouth' according to Lily and had to go into the closet for a time out). I prepared a couple of sandwiches cut up in little triangles with the crusts off, some cheese slices and our special treats -- one cranberry scone, one blueberry scone and a small individual Black Forest Cake.
We enjoyed our tea party. Then while I cleaned up the dishes Lily and Missy prepared for a gymnastic show. Missy regaled me with all her moves, head stands, splits, twirls, jumps, flips, all kinds of things. Missy then had a little question and answer period after the show but she was extremely scary and yelled at the audience. I can see now why she got in trouble for her smart mouth.
After these we played dolls. I am the babysitter in this game while Lily goes off to work. I'm not real sure what her 'job' is but today it involved me having to fill out a questionnaire. Her boss had to know my name, birth date and phone number. This was to be certain that Lily had adequate child care while she was at work.
All to soon our Monday Funday was over. Hope you have enjoyed sharing it with us.
