The grandchildren came back to BC with us ...
The first thing they did when they arrived at the house ...
was to check on the robin eggs (first picture was taken on July 13) ...
the kids were so excited to see that two had hatched ...
We kept checking for a couple days ...
and the third egg did not hatch ...
A trip to the garden to pick one garlic plant ...
this bulb only had 3 extra large cloves ...
After dinner the kids wanted their banana split ice cream ...
James was surprised to see a spoonful of cookie dough ...
that looked like a goat ...
July 26 & 27, 2016
Since a town trip was needed on this Tuesday ...
to pick up a few groceries ... we decided to go to an afternoon matinee at the movies ...
to see the "Secret Life of Pets" ...
The next day ...
we went down to the garden to gather some produce for our evening meal ...
It was great that the kids wanted to help ...
Ella saw the marshmallows and Rice Krispies ...
and wanted to make squares ...
With a little guidance she was on her way ...
measuring the ingredients ... buttering the pan ...
and putting the marshmallows into the pan ...
The marshmallows melted ... vanilla added ... and the Rice Krispies mixed in ...
then the mixture was poured into the pan ...
and with lightly buttered hands ...
it was spread and pressed down to fill the pan ...
and it wouldn't be complete without a few sprinkles put on the top ...
A job well done ... !!!
After dinner ... James was first in line ...
to have a taste of the Rice Krispies Squares ...
then off for a swim and a soak in the hot tub ...
on their last night here at Grandmas and Grandpas ...
You had some great help ,besides having fun , good job everybody.
