Liv Inflates a Balloon

Another First!

- and more new skills -
Liv learned to inflate a balloon last week while Grammy & Grampy were here!

These balloons have a straw, whe's still working on the rolled-edge ones. But she was pretty pleased with her new skills!

Sun Pinata for Liv

It seems that since Mimi's hotair balloon pinata was a success, it's time to make another one for Liv's birthday.

We're going to try a sun this time.

So far so good.

Play, Play, Play

Oh Boy, have we been playing with during our grandparents' visit!

We showed them our new favorite climbing structure in town. Check this out!

This park has a merry-go-round, too. (Last summer they took out the see-saw)

We took a trip over to Super Franks and had a terrific day!

And, of course, we played at the playground, here, at Diablo Grande.

Happy Birthday, Grammy

Happy Birthday, Mom!

While Leslie Anne isn't here in California today, we are thinking of her as she and Grampy travel home. And before she left we had a little celebratory treat of ice cream cake.

She asked Livvy to help blow out the candles.

More Backyard Fun

We've had so many lovely days with the Grandparents, here!

And lots of good fun playing outside.

Of course, plenty of riding bikes and digging in the their sandbox.

Running, tumbling and wrestling in the lawn.

And a few happy picnics on our magic carpet.

We even spent nearly all of Friday morning outside sprawled out on the magic carpet and various blankets, reading, playing, coloring; listening to the birds and basking in the sun and light breeze. It felt like a day at a resort!
