The girlies who will play with the dollhouse in previous post

These are my five granddaughters at a family birthday party.  Missing is the grandson, he was napping during the festivities.

doll house for girlies

This is part of the Barbie dollhouse I am making for my grandgirlies to

play with at Nana's house,  I have really enjoyed working on it.

Grandbabies

I'm going to have three of my granddaughters overnight.  Looking forward to it!

pears

We have pears on our tree that are just getting ripe.  I made a lot of pear preserves and pear halves last

year so we have given away several this year.   Our granddaughter likes fresh pears so she was really enjoying picking her own this weekend.   Most of the ones on the ground in the picture have also been enjoyed by the deer!

Fishing

Friday my husband and I both took off work and went fishing!  It was so relaxing, sitting in the boat together, just enjoying each other's company.  The fish weren't really biting, so I did some reading and worked in my puzzle book.  My husband did catch three bass, but threw them all back.  It was a beautiful day! 

Thankful for my grandmothers

Two nights last week after work my husband and I attended Revival at a little country church not far from our house.  As I sat in the church I was flooded with memories of my mother, grandmother and great grandmother who had all attended this small church at one time or another.  I think I had even visited as a child with my mom too when we were here on vacation (my dad was in the military and we always lived away until he retired).  It made so very thankful that I had generations of women behind me who were faithful in taking their families to church!  I hope someday my children will be thankful for that too!

Natures sweet bounty

We picked a bushel of peaches Saturday, they were beautiful. Monday afternoon, we canned peaches in syrup and peach pie filling.  Can't wait to try them both this winter! 

Granddaughter Caitlyn is doing great, you can't tell she ever had surgery at all!  School starts Monday for her and little sister will start Pre K.  They grow up way too fast!
