Shopping With Grammy

 

 

On Friday my granddaughter came over to spend the weekend.

 

  So, on Saturday,  her friend came over  and off we went for a trip to the mall.

 

After raising five sons, all this “girly fun” has become a new tradition around my house these days.

 

We were so surprised to see the LSU Tigers ladies volleyball team at the mall.  Oh my, the girls were thrilled to get everyone’s signature on their poster.  Great start to our day.

 

Then we were off to do their favorite thing - trying on clothes.  But first a pit stop in the make up department.  Girls do have to have look just right for a big fashion show, right?

 

  Look Grammy, a perfume named after me!

 

 

Now…the real fun begins.  Time to try on a bunch of really pretty dresses. The dressing area was transformed to a runway.

 

Dress number two!

 

And another…

 

 

And another… Do you like this one Grammy?  Blue is my favorite color.

 

Or do you like this pink one better?

 

 

Choices…choices! Life has so many choices!

 

 

And after the show, one more quick shot with the mannequins, while checking to see what texts may have came in!

 

Then it was back out doors to enjoy the beautiful fall afternoon!

 

Now after all that hard work modeling, it was time for a frozen yogurt treat!

 

 

The theme for Texture Tuesday was Love…oh my, I just LOVE being a Grammy!

Celebrating Good Times!

 

 

 

In honor of this special day I’d like to give my wonderful friend  a cupcake from Cupcake Couture.   Her favorite one is the, “wedding cake”!  Hope you enjoy each bite.  No calories this time!

 

 

This past week we did a lot of celebrating.  My baby turned 21!  (ouch…)

And my first grandSON turned 3.

 

See Grammy, I’m a big boy now! 

 

 

Here are the two birthday boys, my son Joel and grandson Cole!

 

 

Now, time for presents!

 

Now if this is not cuteness over-load I don’t know what is?

 

After all that wonderful cake and ice cream it was time for some action!   Yep, that little girl you see is my beautiful – feminine  - smock dress - big bow wearing - Kayla, ready for some football with her brother. 

 

Way to go girl!

 

He’s back up, and in the game…

 

Oh and what a great day it was, because our beloved New Orleans Saints beat those teddy bears from Chicago!

 

 

A Touch of Sun

Sweet Shot Tuesday

 

 

The theme for I heart faces this week is “Back to School”.

So, in honor of “Back to School” I took a bunch of pictures of my favorite subjects…you guessed it, my grands.

 

Here is Kayla, now a big first-grader, looking adorable as ever!

 

 

 

 

 

And then my precious little Cole stole the show (as always)!

 

 

After all the hard work we decided to treat the kids to a book.

Hmmm, looks like Karli found the perfect one! Now don’t those big brown eyes just melt your heart?

 

And then today I got to have some Big Girl fun…

And went to lunch with some very special friends from back home.  Oh what a great time we had!  Life doesn’t get any sweeter!
