We love babysitting the
grand kids. Sometimes we babysit Kassie and Ryan's kids and sometimes Betsy and Gentry's kids. And sometimes we babysit them at the same time. The past few weeks that we have babysat we have had lots of fun. These are some of the fun things they do when they are hanging out with grandpa and grandma. Alyssa wanted to make pudding. I didn't have instant and so I told her we could make that another time. She was persistent and after looking in the pantry found some cook and serve vanilla pudding. So she helped me make that and then she got this great idea to make ice soup. It's really easy grandma all you do is get a cooking pot, ice, warm and cold water and it's done. She kept adding and adding and then it was finally done. She gave me a bowl and then talked Brock into one. He said it was good but he wanted strawberries in his. So he had strawberry ice soup. YUM! Want the recipe call Alyssa. Then
Jordyn got this great idea to pose for some pics. using her fake camera and then I went and got my camera to take the real pics. So they are posing for the pictures. She told her mom that we took some really cute pics of them with grandma's real camera. Brock caught a potato bug and put it in a jar. He babysat it for a few hours then he went home. SHH!! Don't tell Brock but the bug did not make it:). Bridger and
Jordyn love to play horses when they come. They bring them and we race them and set up poles and barrels and then grandpa is our trainer. We even go to Rodeos. What a blast.!
Jordyn was dancing with Alvin and the chipmunk movie and later the kids went down stairs to play more horses and play store.
Kamri is such a good sport to play with the kids but she loves to be on the computer and play
webkins, listen to music, or browse e-bay and I-tunes. Brock and Boston love movies and so when they come they like to watch movies. They love to eat popcorn of course while they are watching. My
niece Shalece sent down some marshmallow popcorn that we tried out it was yummy!! Thanks
Shalece. We bought a big screen T.V. about three years ago and the kids love, love, love to play in the box. It can be a house, a boat or whatever. It almost bit the dust today but
Kamri and I fixed it with duct tape. Hopefully it will last another three years. Today grandpa was working in the yard and Bridger went out to help him. He thought he was pretty big boy. He is a great little helper!! Bridger Grandpa says thanks. We also had an inside picnic today. It was too cold for grandma to go outside so they ate their picnic inside and watched a movie. Grandma and Grandpa have so much fun when the
grand kids come. WE LOVE OUR
GRAND KIDS. We will see them again tomorrow. We are having everyone over for dinner in between conference. Will post more pics of that tomorrow. Sorry the post was forever long but I am a grandma and love to brag about the
grand kids. We are so lucky and very blessed. The hands are you guessed it old grandma hands
mine,
Jordyn and Bridger's
My student teacher's last day was Friday!! It was so sad! I will really miss them both. They have been with the class since the beginning of the year. So we all have bonded. My class and I will truly miss all they did for us. They really were outstanding and did so much work on behalf of the students and myself. I will miss them more than words can say. I feel so blessed to have had the opportunity to get to know Sarah and Sienna. I hope they had a good experience and learned a lot. I know I did from them. Monday I go back. I honestly am ready to go back and be the teacher again. I have missed the kids also. But I truly will miss the extra set of hands, the friendship that grew and all the new and fun ideas (and energy) they brought to the class. I just wanted to post this tribute to them. We love you Mrs. Brown and Miss Vanwagoner. Hugs
