An Evening with the Lathrop Girls

No video games, no TV, no iPads!  Two little girls hanging out with Grandma and Grandpa having fun the old fashion way.  
We have a new piano player in the family.  She brought her music over so she could serenade us.  That she did and it was beautiful.  


 Lucy found Grandpa's birthday card from the Doolittles and thought it was pretty darn cool!
 Craft time.  Coloring pictures!
 We had a nice dinner cooked by Grandpa.  Layne and Lucy eat everything.  Even cucumbers! ICK.



 Back to drawing after dinner!
 Pumpkin carving at it's finest.
 Layne sketched her pumpkin face out before she was ready to carve.  So did Lucy and I, sort of!
Layne made ICKY Soup last time we did pumpkins.  The inside of the pumpkin with water added.  She asked Grandpa to taste it and he did.  This time Layne is trying it out.

 Two master minds.  Grandpa carving the pumpkin and Layne playing in the guts.


 I carved Lucy's pumpkin!  I have to say Mike is more skilled at this than I am.
 Here are the final products.  Layne's.
 Lucy's with a huge nose.

Posing by her pumpkin.  I promise there was no chance of Lucy catching on fire.  Looks like it in this picture though!
 We polished off the evening with checkers and more drawing.  What a great night.  We love these little girls so much.  Can't wait to do it again.
