our fun weekend with mimi started with a trip to mckinney trade days.  the kids love looking at the puppies, we love looking at everything else
 

then we decieded to head home and make some strawberry freezer jam and homemade rolls
mimi's calculations were a little off and we ended up making BOWLS of jam(i think 7 bowls to be exact)

and then there were the rolls-we had a little trouble to start off with and then we figured it out!
don't they look like heaven!!

freezer jam queen herself!!  it's she pretty!!

next it was off to play a game of twister with the little man!
which lasted all of about two minutes-i think it took longer to set up the game then he played, 
so then we decieded to play Hi Ho Cherry O
that went a little better, but still he has the attention span of a fruit fly!!!  we practiced a lot of folded arms waiting for our turn!

by now the bread was ready(the jam wasn't set yet but it still tasted GOOOOD)
we may or may not have eaten the whole pan of hot rolls......


then last of all to complete a fun day with mimi it was story time!


and a little snuggle with satchmo


and then it was bottle time and off to bed for the little kiddo's while mimi and i sewed!!  what a day, thanks mimi for all the fun!!

Great pictures! And yes, Mimi is so pretty (great pic, Lis!). That sounded like way too much fun for one day! Wish I was there, the rolls and jam look so delicious and the kids so adorable and you and Mimi so fun!
