We had a very pleasant Saturday, mostly out in the garden. The girls were swinging on the swings, Thomas and Eva were playing baseball, Trinity helped me plant some sweet pea seeds, and Felicity and Dad had a plan to help a "Mr. Bilbo Baggins" move in! This is the stone "hobbit house" that Gregory got for father's day a year or so ago, but it never had a home until today. It is now on a mossy hill near the back of our yard and it looks so cute. I love the pathway Felicity made.
Mary Margaret had a friend over today, and they had a lot of fun planting flowers in containers, and this is a tea pot that they painted and put some alyssum in. I think it is pretty sweet.
Grace went to a birthday party this morning, and at the end of the party, her friend gave her a goodie bag tied to a yellow balloon. Well, when Grace took out the little package of crayons that was inside the bag, the balloon floated off, carrying the goodie bag and all its contents away! It was so sad seeing Gracie standing in the sandbox crying while the balloon was getting farther and farther away. What could we do? A hug from Mum was o.k, and Dad gave her a ride on a utility dolly, which is kind of fun, but Eva made Gracie happy again by cutting out a balloon from yellow paper and tying a string on it for our dear little Grace. Aren't big sisters great?
