Kate and Taco

We went to a picnic a couple weeks ago and Grace and Kate were so excited to see a 3 month old Chiquaqua (sp?) puppy! Of course Grace wanted to hold him for a few minutes but then ran off to play with the kids. Kate just wanted to walk the poor puppy and of course the puppies leash and collar matched her outfit and OF COURSE I forgot my camera...I have been doing that lately and it makes me sooooo mad! Anywhoooo....a very nice lady let me borrow her point and shoot camera and she just emailed me the pictures. They were mostly blurry but I did get a couple of decent ones for the blog :).

Kate kept calling the puppy Honey (our dogs name) so we told her (many times) the puppies name is Paco. So, then she called him Taco all night. At least it was closer than Honey :).

Finally!

Grace has wanted....no, I mean NEEDED a sandbox for years! When I say needed I mean needed. She has resorted to digging any dirt under the swingset into a little pile to play with. I don't like sand. I really really don't like sand. So, Memorial Day, Jared went to Home Depot and got all the supplies to build a little sandbox with a lid. Here is a little photo slide show of the day :).


btw...I don't like sand a little less now that I see how much the girls LOVE playing in there :).
