weekend with the girls

andrew and i journeyed up north to visit with the girls (as well as j & e) -- i know my time with them being so close is getting shorter, so i wanted to make sure that we take advantage of it as much as we can!  we have plans to go up there again on christmas and then they move in january.  something tells me my blue aura is going to get the best of me in the near future!  :)

we went to the local christmas fair (not the official name!)

girls were fascinated with the classic kris kringle & the chocolate coins he handed out

enjoying the treasures!


the girls striking a pose in front of the stage -- so cute!  it took about 20 pictures to capture a couple good ones!  i can't imagine having to be a professional photographer!

 
ha!
 
beautiful backdrop on the stage

touching poinsettias, poking lights, peaking at the picture on the stage, and creeping on the guy fixing up the sound system -- all done on tippy toes!

second run-in with k.k. -- after there was the conversation with why he might need to go out on his break...

delicious goodies!  j & i were so good watching the girls eat their treats -- go us!


best photo of the whole production!

touch -- touch -- touch

homemade creamy honey and actual live honey bees!  the girls were speachless!

next, j & e went out for a date for their anniversary -- the girls and i settled down for some pure arts & crafts magic. 

the mama & baba cupcakes -- it only took some minor instruction on rolling, twisting, & ball making for the girls to create these creatures.
 
fun with aunty andrew

the treasure and famous bear

such a goon!
