Waiting, waiting...I see them! I see them!
Poppy and CC had a good trip over the pond and hit the ground running with us. We actually had few to nil adventures planned.
A trip to the market...
Here I am picking out vegetables, The sellers on the floor usually have fresher veg from their own fields/garden.
Firework store. Discounted since it was a day after New Year's.
They chose a big box, that boasted 36 really big, loud, and pretty fireworks. Think what a smalltown, USA firework show would be like, and that is about what our family purchased and did on our own.
Tobin wearing Poppy's hat. For our Homeschool performance for them Tobin had written (said) a very cute little poem/story about Poppy as a pilot.
The older girls stepped right into restaurant play...
Strolls in the neighborhood..
we ventured across town to the big square to play.
tree climbing...
Hide and go seek: (not bad for a 2-year-old)
We ran into our old neighbors. This was from ten years ago. I recognized them right away and we had a blast reconnecting.
We had gone from zero to four kids since we last saw them.
we piled back in the car to find lunch.
A favorite dive. But since it was the holiday, they were out of all the good stuff.
Poppy and CC always join the craziness and have been here enough to know that when we promise good food, it will be good. Even if there may be cats chasing rats around (not this time, but it happens).
