I scream, You scream, We All scream for Ice Cream!

Last Saturday evening, Mike & Corissa and family invited us to join them at Chick-fil-A for supper and a short playtime at their home afterwards.  Cailyn enjoyed her chicken nuggets and fruit first, anxiously awaiting her apple juice box drink.
Landon scarfed down his nuggets, fruit and cheerios, and then they were both ready for dessert. 

In fact, we were ALL ready for Ice Cream! 

Landon is getting the hang of the spoon!

I want to get every little drop! It's melting....

                                           See, Mimi, I can do it!

                                   Daddy, shall I eat the cheerios while the ice cream is melting?

                                     Celebrating my good checkup at the dentist AND my flu shot!

                                                        I definitely have the hang of it now!

                                         Biding my time until I can get my hands on the cone!

                                           That's more like it!  Even my sister is impressed!

                                         A little too close to the flying ice cream debris!!

After we were all sugared up, we went back to their house for a little playtime...

                                            Landon is showing Grandpa the train table!

                                        And Cailyn is making Mimi a super-duper sandwich!

                               YUMMY, Cailyn!  Thanks to everyone for such a deliciously fun evening!!

SWEETS for my SWEETIES

Yesterday was "Grandparents Day" and even though we are new at the "grandparenting" role, Corissa and Mike remember us with a special home-made card to mark the day! 

Cailyn is doing a fine job of printing "CAT" already, and her people drawings now have not only eyes and mouths but sometimes hair and arms too!

I had made special "fun in the middle" cupcakes for our Sunday Dinner dessert...and below, you can see how the sweetness was a hit with our sweeties!

What a difference a year makes! This year at my parents' 81st birthday celebration held at my sister's home on August 31--

--Last year's celebration held at our house included Cailyn & Landon with their Great Grandparents! Mom and Dad haven't aged a bit...but the changes in Cailyn and Landon are amazing to me (and to their parents as well!)

The desserts were gobbled up in one evening, but we have some sweet memories to last us forever!
