Since last Friday was a teacher work day, I, like 90% of the teachers at my school, took a personal day and hitched a ride to Tallahassee with Lynn and her husband. They were going to visit Lynn's sister and I wanted to go play with Jack Thomas. We did take a "little" break in Ocala at Hobby Lobby. We just can't pass that place without stopping. I found this Paris frame so, of course, I bought it.
What a great visit I had with Adam, Brooke, Chelsea and Jack. I really appreciate it that they let me come so often.
Jack is walking now, and what a doll he is. He really loves his toys and loves to play. He has already figured out how to do the Lego that we got him for his birthday.
But I do believe that books are his favorite thing. He lost his favorite book, Brown Bear, Brown Bear, at the mall one day so Adam and I went to Books A Million on a quest to find a new one. Jack just loves this store-unlike his father whom I had to bribe as a child to go to Barnes and Nobles with me. Adam put him down and he literally ran from table to table looking at the displays. We led him over to the children's section and he started to play with the train set they have set up.
Adam found a copy of the book and said "Jack, look. Here is Brown Bear, Brown Bear." Well, he dropped the train and ran over to get the book. He was so happy that he ran all around the store looking at the pages of the book. Finally he just sat down so he could really enjoy his book.
Before we went to the book store we went to lunch at Red Elephant. Jack had a ball. There were so many people coming and going-he is quite the people watcher. He loves lemons so Adam gave him one. You would never know he liked them by the face he made.
Later, we went to a park in their subdivision and Jack really had a good time. He loves the slides.
Then it was time for some loving time with Chelsea, dinner and a bath.
He has the cutiest little behind!! I really did hate to leave but will be back soon for Bennett's shower.
This Saturday I went to the twin's 2nd birthday party. Emma and Lily are so cute and really loved having all the company.
A friend of Darla's made these cute cakes for them.
Last week, I made another card sample for our reading coach for her invitation to her 40th birthday party. She really liked this one and is going to do it for her party.
Darla gave me a beautiful frame for pictures from our trip. It is double sided so we can put two pictures in it. I absolutely love it.
I don't know who the lovely couple is, but they are cute.
