Lunch ❤️

Love this pic!

THIS WAS TAKEN LAST DECEMBER – At the royal Park hotel when we had dinner !❤️

Today Poppy is going to pack up a back to school “ lunch love” for you both.      Every day I would tuck one into your book bags so you would have an extra smile in the day while at school.    Today we will send a package  to you for your new school. I enclosed a bunch of stickers like your old favorites from “lunch love”  We hope they will bring some smiles to you this year. We love you both so very much and hope your day is full of smiles and laughter. All our love,
XOXOXOXOXOXO

Friday is still a Bash Day …

Its Friday and we will go pick up Sebastian for the day … he used to love how you guys made him laugh – SUPER GREENS always made him laugh out loud !     You’d be shocked how big he is.     He is walking and yes running … he is learning to talk.     I saw some other photos of you guys with him I thought you may like to see.

And look at this.    You both at beginning of school last year !    I bet you’re so much bigger now.

Look at how adorable you both are !

There is a lot of new things to learn now that you’re  in fourth and first grade.   Can’t wait to see how awesome you do.    All our love today and always –

YOU ARE AMAZING KIDS AND ARE LOVED BY EVERYONE IN THE MITTEN SO MUCH ❤️

XOXOXOXOXOXOX

Pictures are so Amazing! ❤️ THEY CHRONICAL A VERY SPECIAL AND HAPPY TIME

Hello – it’s a new day and just like every other day we are feeling so lucky to be your grandparents.   We have so many memories to share.   While we want all the grand children to know how much we love them.    Some live closer than others, or we talk to or visit with some more often than others, some things are not in our control.  Work schedules and school schedules, activities all play a role  but the truth is they are all close in our hearts.    This site is about bridging gaps and making sure after so many years of living in the mitten, you two know you are thought of and loved.  So many times we wish we could give you real hugs, not virtual ones and  for now this must do.    Today while working Poppy walked by his little stuffed chocolate chip cookie     ?     It was a gift that you, Guillianna had gotten him and it still smells like chocolate chip cookies even after all this time.    He smells it every time he walks by it and it makes him think of the notes you used to leave in his brief case and surprises you’d leave him in ziplocs.        Every time we think of you both we smile.    He  thankfully has his special ceramic Tiger bowl that you,  Eli made him there too.    With all kinds of photos and pictures of you and the other grandchildren.     It makes his work day so very nice !   I think there are hundreds of pics surrounding him every day!

Hope you have had a wonderful day and always know that you’re both loved to the moon and back !

XOXOXOXOXOXOXO

Love always

OH BOY…  how you two love SUMMER!

Hello from the Mitten!

Today I was thinking about our cottage fun times.  how quickly summer passes by !    Then this photo popped up and I decided to share it with you two.     The beaches and sand so much fun !    Swimming always a favorite for you both … the hotels and diving down for toys.   SO MUCH FUN ❤️    Hope you have a great day and enjoy these remaining summer and early fall days and nights.

 

THE BEACH WAS SO FUN.   SWIMMING AND THE SAND DUNES.   MOM AND DAD EVEN GOT TO COME LAST SUMMER.    THE GOOD NEWS IS, MICHIGAN BEACHES ARE ALWAYS AROUND AND WHEN YOU COME VISIT, YOU CAN ALWAYS GO UP NORTH AND SPEND TIME IN A COTTAGE WHETHER YOU ARE LITTLE OR BIG, ITS A FUN ADVENTURE!
